  1. Prune Face!? Did you say Prune Face!? Don’t you know name-calling can have serious consequences on mental health. Oh sure, he has an affliction that has caused his face to become wrinkled prematurely and has been bullied about all his life but that bullying can cause severe anti-social tendencies when he reaches adulthood!

    In fact, researchers feel name-calling is one of the most damaging forms of bullying. For instance, some victims become so depressed from the name-calling that they start to feel worthless and may even turn to a life of crime. Some victims may even contemplate suicide. If your child talks about death, or wanting to die, or turning to a life of crime, do not ignore his comments. Have your child evaluated by a medical professional right away, and for Gods sake….don’t call him Prune Face if you don’t want him to end up being sent to Sing Sing by Dick Tracey!
