I Care Because
Hi I’m Charlotte. And we have this girl in my class who is a bully. And she only targets me. Everyone else just sits there and watches. And the teachers just hope it goes away! How unfair is that? She just gets away with everything! I’m done. I’m finally standing up to her. I’m sick of this. If you or someone else is being bullied, tell a teacher or trusted adult amidily. No more living in fear of bullies. Stand up. Be heard. Don’t let them get in your head. Get in their’s.

I was bullied as a kid, severely, and back then there were no programs, no support. I can't say I will ever understand why or how kids can be so cruel, but they are. I pray times have changed and real intervention and support meet kids/teens where they are at when they need it most - before lasting damage is done. Nowadays I fight for the underdog and look out for others.

Ever since I started middle school, it has been hard for me socially. I have a type of Autism and occasionally get the "you're so cool (not)" behavior from girls and boys. Bullying is a serious problem at my school and no one has established a Bullying prevention program. This year I intend to fix this problem with the help and support of the friends I trust and the Teachers I admire.

You shouldn't have to worry about getting hurt or teased at school or anywhere. We are told by administrators and teachers that school is a safe environment, but it sometimes isn't. I've been bullied constantly, which, for a long time, had an effect on my school work.

Bullying is an issue that isn't addressed enough. Teens need to realize that even though being in the cool group is what everyone wants, it won't matter when we grow up. Stand up for what is right!!! We can change the world. The fight against bulling starts with me.

I care because bullying is a wrong thing to do. Its just why do they do that, is something wrong with them or they just need attention.

i have never been bullied but i guess i know how horrible it may feel, i've seen a lot of people being bullied and i just feel bad because i can't stop it. i don't know how, but i just want bullying to stop, it makes kids and teens feel horrible about theirselves and we all have to be proud of ourselves, no matter what they say, so please make it STOP
