Some of you may be more familiar to the term "albino." A lot of people at my new school make fun of me for having this condition, what do I do??

You can try and ignore them as that is really cruel. There must be some people who can look past your appearance and see you for who you are, any that do are truly friends
I hope you can find true friends.
Good luck

Ingnore them and live your life. I had mental and emotional problems all through school and I was made fun of as well. Not everyone is going to like you.
Be true to yourself dont compromise your values and beleifs to be accepted by one and all. You were made for a reason and a purpose and a plan. Kids can be very cruel. Hurt people hurt people healthy people heal people.
School is tough for a lot of people who are different but what REALLY matters is that after you graduate can you handle the REAL world and I think you will be able to many in school who have everyone tell them how wonderful and great they are have trouble adapting in the REAL world because in the real world you are a spot on the wall just like everyone else By the way. I worked in insurance for 12 years and have had a very successful career and never on any interview I ever had was I asked if I had lunch with the in crowd or popular kids or if I ever dated the captian of the foot ball team.
There is nothing you can do about the mean kids you cant change people places or things but what you can do is love your self and realize how speical you are to God and to others.
With all you have gone through you are going to be able to help others. God bless you.
You are only in school for a season and then for the rest of your life you are an adult. Dont jusge yourself by others. Celebrate the wonderful person you are. Be encouraged e4g

They are free to say or make fun at you and there is actually nothing you can do about that BUT tell yourself the good things about yourself ( like your accomplishments, achievements, tolerance, patience ) and that your family loves you a lot, it is not a sin to have albinism and console yourself that you are still much much luckier than many other people. I know you have a tough time facing this whole thing but take this as a test of your patience, be strong to face everything and believe me your "hard work" and "struggles" will be rewarded with admiration and appreciation from the others and you will lead a good life.

Just try to be cool. Some people are idiots and that's not likely to change. You can't control peoples actions but you can control the way in which you react.
Just remember, you have albinism. That's a lot better than being a jerk.
Hope this helps.

I feel for you. I really do.
I grew up in the 1960's when people knew even less about people who are different than they do now.
Teasing, poking fun, or even ridiculing something that is different, is going to happen.
Hold your head up high, love yourself for who you are, do your best at whatever you do, and you will be O.K.
Ignore the snickers, the jibes, the funny looks, they come from ignorance and fear.
Stand up to the truly malicious attacks, they are made by bullies who will crumble when confronted.
Never hide who you are. Be brave. Be fearless. Be YOU.
Everyone is "different" in some way.
Try some of the Martial Arts. You will learn discipline, control, patience, and how much you can do.
Plus, you can kick the tar out of the bullies if you really have to.
All my best wishes.

I really see now difference between and albino and a tan peron. God created us to love each other. Some people just flow off track and put all their anger on one person or just make fun of someone to feel big infront of their friends. Those are the people that u say screw you to then just leave.

I think albinos look pretty cool (Edgar & Johnny Winter) - and people make fun of people for a lot of different reasons. Some of them are just mean and will try to say anything.

I'm sure you already know alot of other kids are rude, telling you to just ignore it or to have nifty comebacks doesn't solve the problem. Maybe you can make a real good friend and have so much concentration on her that you don't let the mean teasing hurt you

Use it to teach others about melanin and the fact we are all on color it the melanin in our skin that determines how dark or light we are.
You can help the world better understand where their color derives from.
There are very few albinism so share and educate people
Be glad your unique
