Bullying or harassment suffered by many children is a serious problem. However, there are minors, who, together with their parents, decide to combat it in a medical way. Yes, through cosmetic surgery.

In December 2017, at just 11 years old, Bella Harrington underwent cosmetic pediatric surgical procedures because she claims that the bullies at her school tormented her with her pronounced ears, People says.

"They were always pointing it out, but then when more people pointed it out, it was when I wanted to change it," the girl told a local Virginia newscast, 8 News WRIC. "I think they [my ears] stuck out too much," said Harrington.

After years of thinking whether they did it or not, Bella and her mother, Sabrina, decided to make the decision to carry out the operation to silence all the "bullies" at school, People explains.

However, the 11-year-old girl was sincere when she said that when someone asked her if she wanted to go swimming in the summer, she was afraid that her ears would be seen. Perhaps what he feared was criticism or the looks of others.

The minor's mother told the local newscast that the children who bullied her at school were cruel. "They were cruel, telling him different things. One thing they said was that she had “elf” [goblin] ears,”said her mom. Meanwhile, the doctor in charge of the surgical procedure, Dr. Joe Niamtu, affirmed that his greatest reward is helping students like Bella, who suffer from bullying. In this way, Bella managed to escape the effects produced by the group pressure of this type of stalkers, Niamtu said on Facebook.
