I've had a few people point and laugh at me when I was younger, in elementary and middle school -- particularly, one morning in the eighth grade when these two obnoxious boys called me "the kid with the broken legs" as I was walking to class. Most younger boys would just curiously ask me what's wrong with my legs or why I walk funny, and at the time, I would kindly explain that I have this condition that affects my walking called cerebral palsy.
