A brave young boy who overcomes being bullied

Tweet

Evan Struckman who is 10 years of age who lives in Missouri is what you call a super Tony Stark fan who dresses like his favorite alter ego of the Invincible Iron Man is one young man who impressed his mother Jill for his bravery of wearing the costume during Halloween week. Evan had to deal with some of his fellow students who mocked him for dressing up as the millionaire hero by making fun of his taste in clothing by calling him "Stupid" which of course hurt his feelings to the point that when he arrived in school, he went to the principal's office to ask the officials to call his mom to go home since his heart was on in staying in school after he took the makeup of his favorite hero character. Jill then took her son to Starbucks where her son told her about the bullying over the choice of dressing up as his favorite hero character. When Jill told her son that dressing up as his favorite hero is "Awesome.", Evan decided to dress up as Tony once again and go back to school and join the Halloween party since his mom advised her son not to allow a few mean kids define who he is. Jill sent the story on Facebook which is gained a lot of attention since we all have to face persons who say mean things since they do not like the idols of kids that they admire. My advice to Jill and Evan is to see the cartoon movie on PBS Kids called "Wordgirl: The Rise Of Miss Power" which deals with the subject of being bullied. The movie has a wonderful way to beat a bully at their own game.
