Sadly, I believe that all sports teachers reserve the right to be as sadistic as possible, and this is why we are forced out in minus 600 degress in sports knickers and vests!!

Unfortunately, there's very little that can be done about the majority, as they are allowed to make us do activities and sports we are afraid to do. I remember being terrified of hockey after one girl in my class got her two front teeth smashed in with the ball.

BUT, I played and actually turned out to be quite good! My point is that even though you're scared to do it, you have to get on and try because you never know, you may just end up top of the class. Not to mention it will earn your teacher's respect if you try hard and that means she will be less likely to pick on you.

As far as calling you fat, you really need to do something about this. There's enough to deal with in school, without teacher's giving students more reason to feel body conscious!! If name calling such as this keeps up, you need to speak to your Headteacher about it and see if something can be done. Leading is fine, bullying is not.

SqueakieSquid2323 is right.

I'd like to add though that you need to tell your school principal that your teacher is calling you fat. Even though it doesn't seem to bother you, it could be very damaging to others. Since you are thin and she calls YOU fat imagine how other people that are larger than you may feel. I'll bet she doesn't just do it to you either. She is a professional and should know better than to say things like that. It can be very very damaging and it needs to stop immediately.

If you feel unsafe or uncomfortable in class, which it seems you do, this is something to discuss with your school principal or guidance counselor as well. If people are getting hurt, your teacher should NOT be making you do the activity. You may be able to get out of the class too for personal reasons. I wish you the best of luck. :)

First of all whats looping? And second of all, don't feel pressured into doing something where your safety is at risk. Try to talk to your gym teacher about something you can't do and if she ignores you, then ask her to help you so you do it the right way. Ignore other people who show off because they probably just want a good grade or have a natural talent for the sport. Ignore the "fat" comments and do the best you can... it's just gym class... right? And if you really feel paranoid that your going to get hurt, talk to yuor parents about it and ask them for help. As for the nightmares, I can't help you there but if you think about something happy, read a book, or watch tv before you go to bed and forget what tomorrow is, you may not get those dreams. I hope this helped... :)
