When Elliot writes about his experience with the Jock Rots and sends it out over the KidNet, he includes the following quote in his letter.
"I think people ought to realize that stuff like this goes on every day…The rest of you are all part of it-because you let it go on and maybe you think it's funny, or you think it only happens to geeky outsiders and kids who are smaller or fatter or skinnier or don't have so many friends or so much money as you. So tell me-what happens when you don't have so many friends one day, or you don't have so much money, or something bad happens to you?" (91-92)
Blog Question:
What is the message is he trying to get across to his classmates? (6pts)
Answer: The big main idea that every one in the school gets bullied all the time
I also thing that he is trying to say that he and other people get bullied so much that its like a routine for example on page 92 he says "First they surround me after school in front of the school street park. That was pretty typical"

I kind of agree with you, but not exactly because not everyone gets bullied, but just somehow involved or trying to avoid it is also being part of it.
I agree with you on your second paragraph, but i dont think everyone gets bullied all the time.
