Wow. When I was a young teenager I dressed up as a hobo and no one thought twice about it. Good grief I miss the days when people had intestinal fortitude and didn't really give a rat's rear end what other folks did because it was all in the name of fun in the case of Halloween. And Christmas as well. These holidays were fun back in my youth. 

 

And the idea that schools, not just colleges, have response teams for stuff just blows my mind. If we had a problem we took care of it ourselves or we took it to the guidance counselor. I am a sensitive natured person and things do get to me from time to time, but I deal with it. Depending on what the issue is depends on how I deal with it. I'm not running to some 'advocate' to pour out my sorrows. I suck it up and drive on.
