I Care Because
ive gotten bullied before so I took a stand just because you're bigger than somebody you don't use that weight to push them down you use it to pick them up.

no one really understands how it feeks to be bullied until it happens to them, its not fair on the people that have to go through it no matter who they are, it has to stop, we cannot give the bullies the satisfaction of getting to us and bringing us down

I was bullied as a kid too. We moved a LOT. I went to more than 15 different schools. I was always "new" and very poor. There was lots for the other kids to find to pick on. It hurt so bad. I was afraid to go to school many, many times. Sometimes all it takes is knowing that there is a grown up who cares, who understands how bad it feels, and who wishes they could make it stop for you. I care.

Bullying is mean and nasty, it can affect the lives of so many. People who get bullied are affected in so many ways, some including; depression, anxiety, stress, sadness and anger. When someone gets bullied it can either happen online (cyber-bullying) or face-to-face. I firmly believe that bullying MUST stop because when i experienced it, i felt sad and useless. So to all bullies out there who think they are "cool" because of bullying stop and think to yourself. What's the point of bullying? To feel better? To become popular? Well your wrong, because you will NEVER feel better. Instead the only thing you know how to do is to make others suffer?...
