Fran answered Thursday November 25 2004, 10:16 pm: If you are laughing at him then that makes you a racist, and just as bad as the other kids... next time they tease him just go- That's so not funny, and just dont' join in with their racisms. Maybe you could make friends with him and he'll invite you around for some nachos. Then your little friends on the school bus won't be laughing. [ Fran's advice column | Ask Fran A Question ]

You can't really do anything about it, unless you wanna talk to him and stuff, but then you have the risk of him thinking of you as a friend and following you around..I think you should just let it go =/..

ciara answered Monday November 22 2004, 9:53 pm: Well shame on you for laughing at something like that! Just because he is mexican doesnt mean other people have the right to pick on him! Is it because he is mexican or something else. He just needs a friend when he acts annoying he is trying to make friend the only way he knows how so u need to be nice to him. I know that sometimes it is very hard to be friends with someone u get annoyed by but just try and u will be amazed at the difference you've made!!!

NorthStarr answered Monday November 22 2004, 9:38 pm: if you really feel bad you wouldnt laugh... ever seen those commercials where someone is being racist and the other one says stuff like thats not nice.. the voice commercials or whatever...if not... what you need to do is talk to him.. be nice to him.. then tell your friends they are being immature jerks and they wouldnt like to be in their shoes... also... if they start making fun of you...or if thats what ur scared of... they aint tru friends...find ur own voice [ NorthStarr's advice column | Ask NorthStarr A Question ]

CheapChineseFood answered Monday November 22 2004, 9:36 pm: Stand up for him? Dur. Regardless if he's annoying or not, most of the time, really annoying people are only like that, because they don't know how else to defend themselves. The don't realize if they'd only be themselves that people like them, therefore, they figure they might as well make everyone else miserable in the process of you making him miserable. Trust me, it makes sense. I went through it last year, I was such a bitch to these senior guys because they loved harrassing me about my views on liberalism. So eventually, I got so annoying without realizing it. This kid needs a friend. If people can't see that, they need to get a reality check. There are no statuses, it's just people, damn.

Tinkerbelle answered Monday November 22 2004, 9:20 pm: Stand up for him and don't let them do it. Defend him and tell the people to shut up. As long as you make it clear that you don't think it's cool, the mexican kid will be grateful. [ Tinkerbelle's advice column | Ask Tinkerbelle A Question ]
