The Freeman's have experienced bullying and abuse first hand. Jeremiah Freeman was almost bullied to death in high school. Melissa was labeled "gay" and nearly choked to death in school. Robert was a cutter and a victim of work bullying. Brian had Asperger's Syndrome & a heart condition. Due to being different, a little overweight and severe scarring, he was bullied relentlessly, yet he didn't take revenge on those who bullied him. He lived and died forgiving his bullies.
