I Care Because
I have been bullied, I have dealt with the pain.. I have been called things, I have been pushed around and I have first hand cried myself to sleep at night. I will not tolerate anyone who bullies others.

My best friend was bullied because a boy in my grade spread a rumor she was lesbian. Not only was it mean to her to bully her, but it was also mean because they said it like being gay was a bad thing. She didn't want anyone to know, and she was a bystander to herself for a long time. From that it got worse, until me and my friend stepped in, and I've learned to never be a bystander.

And so i read on and saw this web site and saw that demi lovato was the spokesperson for teens against bullying and im here to say that i absoulutly agree i was in nineth grade last year and i saw how rude comments can bring down someone ego just because some kids have no heart and dont care. i also saw people pick fight because they just wanted to even tho that person didnt do anything to them. im takeing her story i my opion to my school administrator and see if this virbule and pyscial abuse can be stoped. i never knew i could intill i heard that. my love and care goes out to phoebe princes family!!

I care because I've experienced bullying first hand, and I know how hard it is to speak up. We need to give other teens the confidence and educate them about how important speaking up is. Now, after being bullied I have the confidence to speak up, however I wish I had it years ago.

I think that it is wrong that people get bullied. During my years in elementry, I was bullied. I was so scared to tell anyone. I remember never being glad to go to school because I knew that I would be bullied. But when I finally told someone, I felt much better because soon after I told them they stopped it for continuing any further. It is my hope that teenagers can work togther to stop bullying forever.
