I Care Because
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.

I care because nobody deserves to suffer from any bullying or harassment ever. We all should be kind and loving to each other and be accepting to each other. Brandon-

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.

bullying affects peoples lives around the world and no one should feel less about themselves or insecure about themselves. everyone is beautiful and perfect in their own way.

You never know the full extent of bullying and name calling. the worst part is those who put on a mask and pretend it doesnt get to them usally start thinking of themselfs as crap. Some of these teens and adults dont think they can stand to look in the mirror and see their own face one more day and it leads to suicide. Think twice before you bully and report any cases of bulling to an adult.

Bullying can lead to tough situations. Once someone gets bullied, they feel like THEY should bully to show people how they felt. It won't lead you to a good life or career. This program is exactly what we need to help bullying leave the world. I neeeeeed to say thank you to Demi Lovato, because since she is a wonderful role model and inspirastion, people will join the cause and help stand up for bullying.

"I have been bullied about my weight for as far back as i can remember. The only times i ever feel pretty is when im alone and there is no one there to tell me im not. being bullied is nothing to joke about. People say words can't hurt you but they can, and i have known that my whole life. Everyday on my way to school i wonder who is going to call me fat and ugly today. I want everyone to know that bullying isn't right no matter what the reason is. "
