I Care About Bullying Prevention Because...

"I know what it's like to be afraid; One guy always gets made fun of for being diffrent. I admire him for not being afraid. My teacher's never do anything about it. I hate that, I'm the one who says put yourself in his possesion, what if that was you? It turns out, I feel wonderful about standing up for someone. I'm with everyone against bullying, I think that it's one of the biggest causes of death. & no one deserves to be treated like that. Teens Against Bullying. " |

“When 160,000 children in the United States miss school each day as a result of being bullied, it’s time to take action,” said Paula F. Goldberg, executive director of PACER, a national parent center located in Minnesota. “Teachers, parents, students and adults throughout each community must work together to create a climate that doesn’t accept bullying. When bullying is reduced, communities will see more students with higher self-esteem, better school attendance, less physical and mental stress and better school performance.”
