I Care Because
I was bullyed then tured arround and did it to someone else...i dont want anyone to do the same thing...it was a big mistake.
Amelia , 14, KY
Ever since I started middle school, it has been hard for me socially. I have a type of Autism and occasionally get the "you're so cool (not)" behavior from girls and boys. Bullying is a serious problem at my school and no one has established a Bullying prevention program. This year I intend to fix this problem with the help and support of the friends I trust and the Teachers I admire.
Emily, 13, OR
I know what it feels like to be alone, to feel worthless and to be hurt. I've been bullied for 3 years, and the 3 years after that weren't any easier. I got into a depression, I was on the verge of killing myself for a long, long time. I was one of the lucky people that learned to live, I am one of the lucky ones still being alive. But there's so many people out there that don't have the strength I have, and it feels terrible knowing I probably can't help them.

NO ONE SHOULD LIVE IN PAIN AND FEAR
Brennen, 15, Massachusetts
Somw girls in my grade would always tell me they loved me and one time I walked into a conversation about how i was 'absolutely horrific' to put it in their terms... They then started doing it to my face and i almost ate lunch alone every day... a couple guys would sit with me every once in a while but the girls just isolated me. This verbal and lack of attention bullying was and is getting on my nerves and I want it to stop. Not just for me, but for other people who are also going through this... and I definately want it to stop for those in the future so they don't suffer too. I've always wanted to make a change.
