I think this is the best advice. It's not about avoiding bullying (though that would be nice), it's about being confident despite what other might do or say. Sheltering won't help. Giving them confidence and self esteem (i.e. it's not you that's weird, but them, and you'll find that out once you get out of this town/high school/whatever) however, will.
