The situation

A boy in your year called Daniel used to love musical theatre. Everyone knew it. He'd sing show tunes at the bus stop, he was the lead in the school production two years running, and he didn't care who heard him belt out a high note in the corridor. Then a couple of older boys started calling him names for it. Nothing huge — just a word here, a smirk there. Within a few weeks, Daniel quietly dropped out of the next show. Now when someone mentions singing, he shrugs and says, "That was just a kid thing. I'm over it." But you've seen him mouth the words when a song comes on. You know he's not over it at all.
