I Care Because
i will never let anybody get bullied by anyone

I know what it was like. I had the strength to make it to today but it wasn't easy. The scars don't go away, you'll never get that time back or do a reset. Really the only choice you have is to make a commitment today to work toward a better tomorrow.

I care because I know how it feels to be bullied in every way and I don't want people to get hurt like I did. Even if you're a jock, nerd, fashion diva, even bullies don't deserve to be bullied. Please stop bullying. It can hurt people mentally and physically. It's not right to bully.

All my life I have seen people get bullied and it is not okay. When I first moved I was known as that weird girl no one wanted to be around. They started talking behind my back and saying things that really brought me down. It hurts. People don't understand that their words can really hurt someone. But now, 4 years later, I have an amazing group of friends and people who help me to look out for the victims and help them! Remember to always talk to someone if you need them. Your friends and family are the ones who will be by your side through it all :)

My son is a special needs child and has been bullied at his school since the first grade. He is currently in the fifth grade and it is continuing. After many heated battles with the school, we are now seeking an attorney. If we don't stand up for these children, then who will?!! Please help stop the abuse. I could write a book on all the things done to my child and all I get are excuses. As of Friday I was thrown out of the school due to a heated argument with the principal and vice principal. I will stand up for my child and any others that are in this situation. I was very willing to go to jail to prove my point. PLEASE HELP!!

I was bullied and it tore me apart. I don't want anyone else to have to go through the things I went through. Or make the mistakes I made because of it. <3

No one should have to feel that they are not worth it or they are not pretty or handsome, they should be able to be themselves without people judging them or making fun of them. When people make jokes they're just like ?oh, it was just a joke, I didn?t really mean it? rightttt NO, we have feelings too? Me, I?m a very serious person, I can?t take a joke, but it HURTS me why can?t they understand that? I feel bad for people who have been cyberbullied or bullied because people just don?t seem to understand that EVERYONE has feelings, just as every other human being in the world.
