I am a red headed ginger

I'm the redhead in my family and I need help with my anger to other people. For EXAMPLE -- somebody calls me freckled faced, 4-eyed nerd -- I get so upset it feels like my body is on fire. What should I do and the worst part is I'm only 11.

Reply by Deb at RR: Hi Sarah -- thanks for sharing with us (I apologize for taking so long to respond to you!!). I understand you getting angry when other people tease you and say unkind things. You are NOT alone with this because MANY redheads have this happen to them. There is a lot of good advise and other tips on my "TEASING" pages on the website. Other redheads tell what helps them and other stuff.

Just remember you ARE beautiful!! and it doesn't matter what other people say...they are just being dumb or jealous. Many redheads get teased growing up and really love how they look, especially as they get older. If you can find a friend to hang out with that likes you, that helps. Focus on the things you do well and positive things you like too. Ignore the negative comments because it's not worth thinking about.
