I Care Because
Bullying needs to stop now. I've been phisically and mentally bullied since kindergarden and now in high school. It has ended for me and needs to be ended for others.

I care because I have been bullied for 1/3 of my life. I understand all forms of bullying, and I wish to help those who need to be helped. If someone had been there for me when I was being bullied, things might have been different, so that's why I'm working hard to help out anybody I can.

I am bullied. I always have been. I use to want tocommit suicide because it brought my self esteem down so low. I use to cut myself but now I want to help end bullying and show them that there is hope and they can find it just like I did. I show them hope through my music.

I care because I've heard so much about bullying. I've read books and seen movies. I know you probably don't think I will ever know the feeling and how horrible it actually is, but people isn't nice to me. They give me looks and stuff and my "friends" isn't nice to me either. I wouldn't call that bullying but I don't like that they aren't nice. I want to stop bullying because if I feel horrible and cry because of my friends and the one's who give me looks, I guess it is a thousand times worse to be bullied! So therefore I want to help. I care about people and I want to help!

Bullying is simply wrong, hurtful, and mentally debilitating. It lowers self-esteem and self respect.

I care because my cousin gets bullied all the time and I stand up for him. I don't like when other people get bullied and if I see it I will say something

I have been bullied because i was different. Because I was who I wanted to be. Nobody took the time to know me and so they ridiculed me for what they saw. Everyone says that sticks and stones make break my bones but words will never hurt me. That saying just isnt true. Bones can heal. Bullying leaves a permanant scar on a persons life. It can change them or keep them from doing what they are meant to do. I care simply because I dont want to sit by and watch was was done to me. I want to stop this horrible act. No one should feel that they have to comform, that they dont matter, or that they are an outcast simply because they are amazing in THERE OWN WAY. Bullying has got to be stopped!!!
