Thank you!!! I try not to let it happen, but I also think they don't realize it is just like a sport except instead of a game we have a test

Everyone on here for being so nice, this fall I have gone through depression but going onto BYH always made me feel a bit better. Even tonight at a concert I was picked on like usual because I show chickens, kids think that means I don't know what I am talking about for some reason, but when I have only chickens on my mind those get on BYH don't mind at all. I am getting over depression but the fact I am not in the Christmas mood is hard to feel

Aww, @Poka_Doodle! That's not true, as we both know... just because you show chickens, doesn't mean you aren't knowledgeable... why people have to try and hurt others, why they're mean to others, we may never know, but don't take it to heart! You are a very nice person, you're knowledgeable about your chickens, and you love and care for them well! Don't let those other kids hurt you with their words! We're here for you!

Thanks, teenagers think that you eat chickens and that's all. I know that I talk about them a lot but it is just like some people are with sports. Today I went up to a ride kid and pointed out the fact we take a test and know what we are doing

Don't listen to them, some people just try too pick at people that aren't like them, the unique people. You obviously you know what you are talking about, otherwise you probably wouldn't be showing them!

@Poka_Doodle I was one of those kids that didn't fit in and now I am an adult that doesn't fit in. But I fit in just fine right here. Just because the kids you know and go to school with don't like the same things you do, doesn't make any difference in the overall scope of life. I am saddened that it depresses you. Take a good look at yourself deep inside and make up your mind to be happy. Be happy with who you are, not with what someone else thinks you ought to be. If the kids that are making fun of you for having show chickens don't like you for who you are, you can bet'cher boots they won't like you any better if you try to change into what they think you ought to be. So just don't worry about them.

Put on your Santa hat and go hug a chicken. It will make you feel better.

If it helps, I am passionate about my animals and gardening. I can see peoples eyes glaze over when I gush about my garden or animals. I find it strange that everybody doesn't appreciate a giant pile of horse poop. And I am sure other people think I have lost my little mind. I really don't care, I am happy being me and I suggest you find your way to that place that makes you happy. It makes it really hard for the nay-sayers to bring you down when you are smiling. And while they are being less than kind to you, you can be thinking how sorry you feel for them that they measure themselves by what everybody else thinks about them. Don't be afraid to be different from the other kids. Don't be afraid to stand out from the crowd. You just might inspire some other kid that is getting picked on for being "different". Nothing wrong with being different, celebrate your interests, enjoy what you love and never stop because some group of all-alike-all-the-same-fall-off-a-cliff-together pick on you because they know nothing about what you love to do.

They're missing out, they don't know how fun chickens can be! I talk quite a bit about things that interest me at times too, like @Baymule mentioned. Dogs and goats are two of the things that I really like!

You mentioned that your dad is a veterinarian and I think you said he was in Alaska. Is he back home yet?

Yeah, he was gone for ten days and got back on the eightteenth of November
