I Care Because
I have been bullied and still are by my sister. Family she is supposed to show me and guide me and instead she is trying to lure me to a depressed state in which leads me in a grave. Honestly it has been more tempting everyday but after reading these stories it has given me hope and courage to stand up to her someday so... thank you.

All throughout highschool I was bullied for different reasons. It affected my confidence and made me hate who I was. I ended up doing cyber school for my senior year because the bullying was too much, I was afraid to go back. My mom has helped me a lot through this and I just take life day by day now, trying to stay positive about the person I am.

Bullying is not just getting picked on or hurt physicly or emotionaly it is also hurtfull in a different way. for example I am now in 6th grade and i thought that it was going to be so fun and me and my friend alyssa where going to talk to each other every chance we get. the first and second day was exactly that. but then this girl came and started talking to her and now she dosn't talk to me at all. so bullying not just getting punched in the face it is also haveing one of your friends or old friends not talking to you. so if they end up not talking to you then they are not a true friend. and i think that everyone should just stop right then and there.

i've have been bullied alot and still do, there's all these people who say mean things to me and give me looks when i walk past. This one typical girl pushed me out of my chair and then smiled. Also boys are very mean and agressive but thats just typical boys! I like to stay strong because i know if i do i'll actually get somewhere in life and the people who think they're so cool won't. I care because i know bullying is a terrible thing and we should just stay strong and say NO! to it, Don't give up you're still worth it!

Bullying has gotten out of hand, people are getting hurt by suicide, cutting, and losing friends and family. We need to put an end to this because nobody deserves to get treated badly. I care so much about these kind of things and they need to stop, because its only going to get worse. So try and help, if you see a kid getting bullied, jump in. If you see someone unhappy, comfort them. Do whatever you can to help the person, because that person will appreciate you, a lot.
