I Care Because
I care because I know what it's like, I know how it hurts, and I want to stop it. I'm so glad this site was created because I'm so sick of Bullies and bullying! It makes me SO mad and, from the bottom of my heart, I want to put an end to it. Let me tell you my story: Back in Kindergarten, there were these two girls who were pickin' on me, calling me out, making fun of me, and calling me chicken! And I didn't fight back. You know what? I'm stronger now, I'm a fighter now, I will never allow myself to be a victim and other kids shouldn't either! It is so sickly wrong to bully others just because YOU are unstable. I want this madness to end, because I don't want anyone else to feel the kind of pain I felt.

Ive been called every name possible. Dont just be a stand by. The person bullying me pushed me into lockers and stuff. Then she went to the princapal and she told him i was bullying her. And I get hurt and cry myself to sleep and it hurts.

My son was bullied for years until he had given up all hope, and was thinking of harming himself or others. This is unacceptable, our children should not have to endure this pain!

I care because I have been bullied. I hated being pushed around and made fun of, but I eventually turned things around for myself. The stupid part about it is that I became the bully and I didn't even realize it. Just because he/she is laughing doesn't mean it doesn't hurt. Just because others are laughing doesn't mean it's right.

"I see it going on all around me and I hate it! What I hate the most is that I can't be my self. I get made fun of for haveing trouble in school and how I dress. I like to stay home as much as I can but I don't whant my parents to know what is going on. I also see my little sis getting made fun of all the time and I don't know what to do. And It really bugs me how I just go along with it when ppl are talking about my own family. I try to do something about it and it just gets worse and I get picked on even more. I just wish ppl could see how much the things they do and say hurt. I just want it to stop."
