If you saw Olivia at school, how would you treat her? Would you be the type of person to bully her before you even knew her? Does her courage and confidence inspire you in any way? If you were in her position, would you feel like the disease was a blessing or a curse?

I would treat her like any other person. I would not bully her without knowing her.It is very brave to do what she is doing. I feel like it is just a disease and would treat it as such.
I would treat this girl like a normal person. She IS normal, she just doesn't have hair. Even if I didn't know her story, I wouldn't judge her. Her confidence inspires me because so many girls today are self-conscious for no reason. If I was in her position, I'd probably be insecure at first. But in the end, Olivia turned out to be such a strong person that her disease is also her blessing.
If I saw Olivia at school, I would be nice to her. I wouldn't bully her. I applaud her confidence because I don't think I would be that confident if I had a bald head. Just because she is confident doesn't mean the disease is a blessing though. To me the disease still seems like a curse but she has just made the best out of a bad situation.
If I saw Olivia at school, I would just treat her as anyone else. I wouldn't treat her special and definitely not bad in any way. I think she is a really confident woman. If I were her I would believe the disease wasn't a blessing, but something good in a way.
I would not treat her any different from someone else. I would never bully her. I do not believe in bullying because you never know what that person has to deal with. I wouldn't think of it as a blessing or a curse. I'm sure she has her ups and downs, same as everyone. Sometimes she may feel great about who she is and others she may just wish she could be like everyone else. Everything has it's positive and negative sides it's just all about how you deal with it.
I would not treat her differently. I wouldn't bully her I would ask her what happened though. Her courage means alot.It's good she has courage. I would not worry about it eathier.
If I saw Olivia in school I definitely wouldn't treat her any differently, she doesn't deserve that. There is no point in bullying her and making her feel bad about her situation. I am very against judging someone before even knowing them, its immature. Her courage is very inspiring because I know that if I had no hair I would probably feel sorry for myself and never go anywhere. I don't know how I would handle it if I was her, it's hard to put myself in her shoes without actually being able to experience it.
If I saw Olivia at school I would be nice to her. I would be there for her no matter what people would say. Her courage and confidence tells a lot about her. She doesn't care what people think of her. If I was in her position, I would not feel like it was a blessing but something that you can with others in a good way.
I love this girl. I mean people like her restore my faith in the humanity. I would never be able to bully this girl. This is so inspiring to see someone who is confident enough to go to school and not care what anyone says. I'm not really sure how I would react to this but I would think it would be easier because I am a guy.
I wouldn't treat her any different someone who would make fun of her is a idiot. I wouldn't make fun of her. Yes she inspires me. I feel like it could be a blessing if you take it the right way.
Hopefully I would treat Olivia like everyone else. I wouldn't be the type of person to bully her before I even knew her. I'm sure I'd look at her like she was kind of weird but I'd get used to it. Honestly her courage and confidence don't really do much for me but I'm glad she is happy with herself regardless of having no hair. I can't say how I'd feel if I was going through the same thing because I'm not going through it.
She's just another human with just another disease. My cousin has full body alopecia like this girl. It's actually a relatively common disease. More evident in European countries though. This disease isn't necessarily a curse, but it sure as hell isn't a blessing. She isn't dying, and the disease isn't going to shorten her life span, so what's the big deal? They're are people in India with backwards knees, and whole towns in Malaysia dedicated to people with leprosy, why don't they get to be on TV? They're actually suffering the humiliation of being exiled from their family and home. American priorities are all funked up.
If Olivia went to my school I wouldn't treat her any different. She can't help that she has a disease, all she can do it just embrace it and not let control her. If I was in her position I wouldn't feel like having the disease was a curse, I would think it was a blessing. Everyone is unique and special in there own way.
If I saw her at school, I would treat her with respect and nice. I would not be the person to bully her cause I do not know her. I really am inspired by her, cause she is showing that you should never be afraid to be yourself. The disease would be a blessing, cause I could help show people how to have courage and be confidence.
I would not treat her any differently than any other kid. I could never bully someone else. I do not know if I could have the courage and confidence she has. I do not know how I would feel if I had this disease.

What’s the big deal? The big deal is that she was brave enough to come on national tv, and speak about it. The big deal is that she didn’t let it control her life. She’s a speaker at schools and other places, that inspires other kids. It shows that not everyone is perfect. And honey, NEITHER are you. American prioperties aren’t f*ed up, you just don’t have feelings for anyone but yourself.
