bullying is not right, no matter what others say. everyone deserves to be treated the same, so if someone is bullying you stand up for yourself. they don't know the real, kind, smart, funny you. stand up for others, too! i was bullyed by someone in second grade, and it is still fresh in my memory. she was just walking into the classroom, and she said "is that your best shirt?" and i was really emmbarrased because everyone else was laughing. bullying is not a joke. help out. people need you. live. laugh. love. stop bullying. :) :P :D

I care because I have a lot of friends that got bullied and I stood up for them and I get teased for it and get called names from a lot of people and I'm trying a lot of ways to stop bullying, All the time when I see someone getting pushed around or being called something that is not nice I report it and I have been awarded at my school for the most person who stood up and I did not want the award because I am doing what I want to stop. (Before you say something or do something to someone think of what you would feel like if you got called that or if someone did that to you.)

 well at first hand how it feels for people to say that at times i tryed to brush it off but you cant talk to some body about what our going threw when i went threw that i told nobody  i was very fortunate to have friend  that had my back i was also lucky to have a mom who saw that something was diffrent in he way i talk or the way i act i was also luck to have an aunt that i could talk to about any thing. but now i  learn how to deal with it and the best thing for you is  to talk to any one that you need to talk to so you can get out of that situation.
