Ok my name is Theo.Ok this is my problem.There are these kids that are teasing me and I can't do anything about it.I don't dare even to think of going to a teacher because they won't do anything.I told my mother and she said she could come and see the kids ut I don't want that because I am afraid they will hurt me(punch me etc.).So I don't know what to do.I have come to a point where I don't want to go to school .Ok I am not considering suicide because I have learned to deal with my problems and ask for advice.

The teasing will only get worse if it bothers you and you do nothing about it. I hope I ccould be of help, and change your mind a little. Also if you don't want to tell, you can get your mom or dad to speak to the pricipal. [ myimmortal's advice column | Ask myimmortal A Question ]

Your school should have an anti-bullying policy which they can put into action if you tell them about it. It might seem pointless but you should talk to a teacher. if you tell one and nothing happens go to another or talk to your head teacher.
This might seem cliched but don't let them know that you're bothered by it. don't just ignore thembecause they'll realise what you're doing.
Also read Ender's Game by Orson Scott Card- some of the stuff that Ender uses, particularly his attitude to Bernard and Alai would be useful for you.
