14-year-old Tom Daley – one of England’s top medal hopefuls for the 2012 Olympic Games – might have to change schools on account of the bullying he’s received since returning from last year’s Beijing Olympics.
His father, Rob, said his “son’s well-being comes before everything else” and even though Tom had “always ignored the ‘diver boy’ or ‘Speedo boy’ comments” the bullying has come to the point where Tom doesn’t even want to go to school anymore.
Our thoughts go out to Tom. You’re a star! Shine on!
Get home-schooled. Go kick-butt in the 2012 Games!
