Right, because the problem is with *that* child's parents and in NO WAY the fault of the parents of the little bastards who will bully and torment them...
As you probably know full well, anything that strays from the 'norm' does incite some form of bullying - just look at what kids go through at school if they have to wear glasses. I am in no way saying it is right but I am just pointing out what's going to happen. That kids life could be hell and all because the parents think it's cool/funky/modern.

Yes, I do know that very well because I wore glasses at school.
But your attitude seems to be "kids are little bastards, deal with it", whereas mine is "teach the kids not to be little bastards".
If kids have to make themselves feel better about themselves by attacking someone else, then the problem is with the parents, not their victim.

Kids are little bastards, it's because they're kids and in the early learning stage.
Most grow out of it, some carry on being a bastard in later life too.
If anything they're worse now than they've ever been, mainly in the big cities.
If you think you can change them......good luck.
More people are born because of alcohol than will ever die from it.
