You don't have to be autistic to be the victim of a bully, though it certainly doesn't help. Bullies target anyone they believe they can get away with pushing around.
I was bullied myself, though usually by much older kids since I was too big and strong for most kids my own grade to push around. One specifically said it was because i was retarded - or so he figured anyway - as if that were justification for such a thing. Talk about being retarded! Once my older brother found out about it though, that bully learned I was not fair game... mainly though because the only person who was allowed to pick on me was my brother!

Dare to be different... and make a difference.
To boldly go where no one in their right mind has gone before...
