The Living Room star, 64, shared the gut-wrenching post to Instagram on Tuesday, where he described how his 12-year-old daughter Arabella was being picked on at school . 'I just watched my little girl walk out the gate of our home, a place where I know she is safe and feels a sense of security and belonging,' Barry began.
'She is heading to a place that doesn't offer that same security, her school. As a parent, I'm supposed to protect and guide her through difficult times, but this morning, I am lost. 'Yesterday, Arabella came home from school claiming she was sick.
This isn't the first time it has happened. She wasn't actually sick but is instead being bullied again. Barry then made the painful admission he didn't know how to help her and asked his followers for some advice.
'What do you say to a child when you've already said, "Don't let them upset you. Just keep being kind. You are not the horrible things they say".
' 'She said, "I don't want to be special; I just want to be liked",' Barry added. TV presenter B.
