It’s so sad that school bullying can scar people for life. Once you grow up and find your own identity you can view it differently, but I don’t know if you ever truly leave it behind. People who grow into their beauty after they leave school (and they are many, once people’s features become fully formed and achieve a new kind of harmony, even if it’s not the conventional kind of pretty admired in school) often have a lot of difficulty truly seeing themselves as they are. It’s too easy to remember people calling them ugly or at least plain. I think school is kind of tribal. You need to be part of some tribe that will offer you protection from being singled out - the stronger the tribe, the better. Unfortunately, some tribes (eg chess club) don’t offer very much - only more than being a complete loner. But while things like chess and maths clubs give very little status in school, they may give you a lot more in the real world as you have been developing your brain instead of the ability to put on makeup. Music was my ‘tribe’, and fortunately, it was enough. Back to SPN! I think people tend to be very divided about Sam leaving to get an education, because while it might have been best for him, it meant abandoning the family, and especially his brother, who had given up so much to protect him all his life. So he put himself first, and that shows him having strength of character, or being selfish, depending on your point of view. A lot of people remember this episode as a comedy (because of Dean’s hilarious stint as gym teacher and Sam’s asserting his own strength), but when you watch it again, you see it’s a tragedy playing itself out. I think it’s a really good episode but tends to be forgotten because of the standard of so many season 4 episodes.

You're so right...bullying can really take a toll on a person. I went through some pretty vicious bullying (we've had this conversation before in another reactors comments), but it gave me some strength in the end and taught me to have compassion and empathy for others who have been through it, more than anything. It helped me not to become a sheep and blindly follow people to be one of the crowd. I will forever be grateful for that, although at the time I would never have thought that way. That same year in middle school (87-88) there were two boys who committed suicide (one was from bullying, the other from other mental issues). I still remember their names while half the people who taunted me are mostly forgotten at this point. Going through all of that is probably why I understand Sam's perspective as much as I do Dean's. And the saying is always true, "we always want what we don't have"...and for Sam, it's thinking that normalcy - a permanent home, parents, regular holidays and meals will somehow be the thing that makes everything okay. He has to learn that it won't, and I don't think he's there yet.
