“Like so many other kids with special needs, I have been bullied. Kids ...” — Lauren Potter Quote

“Like so many other kids with special needs, I have been bullied. Kids in elementary school made me eat sand, and those same boys would walk behind me, teasing me. Finally I had enough, and I told them to grow up.”

“A long time ago when I was very little, I dreamed about being on stage. Some people told me I would never be able to do it, so I only paid attention to those who told me that I could.”

“It feels amazing to be a role model for people with and without disabilities.”

“I've been fat since fourth grade and bullied for it, but I still knew I couldn't represent every kids' experience.”

“I wasn't bullied in high school, I was just ignored.”

“I was bullied since primary school, for everything.”
