I Care Because
I was bullied a few years ago. The reason for that was that I looked different, I had different style, I thought different. Sometimes they still pick on me, but now I have learned to tell them something back. I think bullying is something that has to stop. It has to stop now and this is something only we can do. Today at school I saw two guys picking on a girl. I knew what she felt and I had to stop it. So I did. I really hope she feels better knowing that there's someone on her side.

ive been continusly cyber bullied and it hurts my advice would be to not fire back at the bully it only makes things worse people need to no that its not funny and dosn't make you cool to bully thanks Demi people need to realise the effects of bullying.

Until you have walked in every person's shoes on earth then no one should put others down, not even yourself.

I know how it feels. I was once "mentally" bullied by my friends when I was in Middle School back in Indonesia, I just moved to the United States few months ago. I never got physically bullied, but the name calling and knowing that people are gossiping about you and talking bad things about you can really make you get depressed. I know how it felt being alone, without having anyone to support you behind your back, I really struggled to stay strong and keeping my head up high. That is why I care, I was a victim and I want kids and teenagers to be able to go to school peacefully.

This is the response to a "hey" I sent to someone on chat...."U stupid little girl leave me alone no one likes u so get a life and ya I get that u like me and all but tbh u r annoying ugly and fat so ya" This happens all the time at school. People are just mean and it makes me sad that I can't have to any friends. it is so bad I want to change schools. I really wish the teachers would open there eyes.
