Yes I only got bullied the first day at a new school and after showing them who was boss I never had a problem from that day.
I can remember having a chemistry set and one..only one mind you..little experiment was mixing baking soda with vinegar and collecting the gas.. co2...so all you would get from the other kids was comments like..how is your cake making going...Probably I should have punched them in the face but I would just laugh with them as I saw the funny side..I am starting to think the strong anti science brigade is a real problem..certainly in the USA ..I mean my little survey must indicate something...I visit a particular Atheist YouTube channel out of Texas and the call ins there from folk who reject evolution and the big bang is scarey..sure I have problems with the big bang but they arise from thinking not because it is a childhood belief..they get their science from one book only.
And when you look into it there is a strong anti science movement within the various religious groups over there .just unbelievable in this day and age.
You should hear some fools discussing why the Earth is the centre of the universe..decent looking men in suits look ok but crazy.
I hope we do not suffer from that problem in Australia but if it is here it should be addressed.
Education should make science the main subject ..half the day science...it can be taught at different levels but at least make it much more prominent...and I am talking thru my hat because I don't know what they teach in school these days...do they regard science as important or not...
