I Care Because
I have been made fun of because of my weight for as long as i can remember. People would tell me to gag myself. I would sit alone at the lunch table, as people called me fat. I never felt pretty, i never felt wanted. I wanted to die. I was called every name imaginable. I thought it would go away in high school, but it didnt. these 3 boys in my class called me fat and tortured me by calling me Rose O'donnel. They would laugh and i would pretend i didnt hear, but as soon as id go home i would cry, and think of what it would be like if i commited suicide. but im starting to realize, that im beautiful. suicide hasnt crossed my mind in months. i am beautiful. But im not the only person who goes through this. Bullying needs to be stopped! We need to take a stand against bullying!

I've realized through my bullying expereinces is that everyone, no matter how old, young, intelligent, strange, or beautiful, should be treated the same. Everyone deserves respect.

I was bullied when I was younger and it affected me a lot. I'm scared for life. Anyone being bullied should speak up........ anyone who's being bullied should know that WE DO CARE.

I've delt with bullying for the past ten years, since I moved off a military base. At first I couldn't understand why people alway picked on me, then I found out it was becuase I was "weird". I'm in high school now and am suck with two girls in my homeroom who love to belittle me. No matter how much I hate it and want it to stop, I hope that as long as it goes on that I am the target becuase I can deal and move on eventually. Some people can't and I want to spare them from something that no one should have to go though.

Even though I'm 22 and soon graduating from college, I still remember that horrible feeling I would get whenever I was bullied in middle school. In fact, it's perhaps the most unfortunate, vivid memory I have from those years.
