I Care Because
I have been dealing with bullying my whole life since kindergarten I am soon turning 16 and for the last two years, it has been getting really bad where I have other students telling me to go die and I get pushed into walls, lockers, and occasionally down stairs. I have been cornered in the bathroom and had several girls bash my head into the cement wall until I was unconscious. I have told school authorities, emailed, and called about it. For anyone going through some similar situation You are not alone and being bullied has nothing to do with you... please stay strong you are needed

Now i have reliezed im not the only one and now im here reading all these stories and reliezing how good i have it... there are people with much worse stories than mine. but bullying is bullying and it should all be stopped ASAP. you are beautiful . remember that. follow your dreams and never give up.

I have been bullied for years & due to this I'm being homeschooled. My mom tried to help but people don't communicate and nothing was done. I feel alone and angry.

I've been bullied because I have short hair and the things I like...Well I'm tired of it! I want to be who I am, not someone I'm not. Why can't they accept me for who I am? I just want it to end!

I have been bullied so much and I know it hurts. The people at my school have good hearts, but they don't know how bad it feels to be bullied. There used to be one kid at my school who everyone treated differently. Even though he tried to be everyone's friend, they gave him the cold shoulder. The worst part was: They didn't understand that what they were doing was bullying. Even the teachers and coaches began teasing him. I tried to stand up for him, but then everyone would just bully me. The bullying got so bad that he had to leave the school. And when he did, everyone got excited. I don't think anyone should be put through that. That's why I started the Anti- Bullying Club at my school. Stop bullying! It HURTS!
