bullying used to be percieved as a physical thing. while it sometimes still is, what prevails today is verbal bullying."sticks and stones can break my bones but words can break my heart" i found that quote here at this site. it's true. i have been called "fat" and it sticks, just like any other horrible name that has ever been thrown to kids. WORDS HURT. and the pain stays and even grows, and i took it in silence. but i shouldn't have had to. no should have to. i support this cause because it's giving back to us the faith in ourselves that we've lost. it's what gives us the power to beat bullying and stop it from happening to others. it's empowering. and it gives me hope. imagine a world without bullies...

I care about bullying alot. When I was 8 years old up to 10, in my old school. I used to cry alot. People did not hurt me physacilly but emotionally. But it still hurt. I was depressed so bad, my family decided to change everything, move house, move schools. And now, I am happy and help people. Most of my friends bully some people and now I stop and tell them off. :] I am 100 percent against bullying!
