Lobo, the daughter of two teachers, recalled during her speech being told by her fifth grade that her teacher that she was not dressing or acting enough "like a girl." She had a tendency to wear jeans and sneakers and playing sports with the boys at recess.
Upon hearing about the exchange, Lobo's mother, RuthAnn, took her directly back to the school and gave the principal a piece of her mind. Lobo said her mother's reaction sent her a power message at the age of 10.
