    Mean people who are insensitive to others. Unfortunately, the schools are full of them and that’s why children with cystic fibrosis face this sad issue. Thanks for commenting.

    I can see how the average person watching this clip might think this.

    But, to someone with cystic fibrosis, which is what this is about, yes- this is bullying.

    Cystic fibrosis (CF) is a life-shortening genetic disease with a 37 year median life expectancy. CF causes the lungs to have thick, sticky mucous which causes excessive coughing.

    So, this is similar to teasing a paralyzed child for being in a wheel chair- bullying of the cruelest kind.

    I hope this helps to educate you.
