Why don't they say a word about what happened to the mother?!..
Yeah, maybe " a 15-years-old can get a medical degree in America" , though i really wonder how that can be done, but, as far as i see, this is not the case anyway... It's just ridiculous and these things should not be encouraged since the patients are to suffer afterwards...

I think the problem with bulling youngsters because of their appearance should not be solved like this. Usually the affected youngsters are the ones that feel weak and who are not self-confident about themselves. Nobody is perfect, not even the bullies. The difference between the bullies and the bullied is that the bullies don't pay attention to their own "defects" as bullied do. So it's more like a psychological problem. And, moreover, why change oneself for the sake of other people???...
Of course it's a different thing when the defects are really serious. One should know how to make a difference between them...
