When Ryan was asked how it felt to be bullied, she had trouble getting the words out, but she said she felt really sad. Ryan had recently lost her grandfather, her father, and her aunt and was dealing with this, and the bullying just added to her depression.

What Re’ Onna has also learned is that it doesn’t matter where you start, but where you finish. In other words, bullying was wrong and she should not have done it, but she has learned from her mistakes. Thanks to the lesson that Dad has taught her.

Both parents have set a good example. Ryan’s mom and Randy communicated and solved a serious problem.
