I have known someone who has been treated badly because he was different. Before I moved to an online high school I had noticed a student at the school I was attending that was quite quiet. He seemed very polite, but unfortunately due to his difference in behavior he was treated rather cruelly. Often he was insulted or ignored and people acted very uncomfortable around him. I got to know him a little and he didn't seem like a strange person to me, just nobody gave he a chance to express himself it
