I Care Because
My 16 year old daughter is bullied on almost a daily basis.She is depressed, no motivation, failing subjects that all stem from constant badgering and name calling. Yesterday May 13, 2013 she was hit and the school, teachers, administration did nothing. I am removing her from the school but this won't be the last time they hear from me. We have to stop this behavior before we lose another child.

when I feel bullied, I feel like bad person- like I deserve to be bullied. NO ONE derseves to be bullied. I agree that everyne has been at least a little bully, like if you scream at your sister for touching your stuff or something, but It isn't right. People need to STOP. I hope all bulies see this site and STOP, because it is WRONG,CRUEL, and very dangerous.

I've been bullied, about my voice at school, people would always ask 'why do you talk like a baby?' ever since people started asking me that question, I stopped talking to keep them from asking that. I would only talk for class if I had to read something out loud or only talk to my friends, but now everyone asks why I dont talk much. I just dont know what to do or say anymore.

There is no need to bully someone, so why do it? Does anyone really think that bullying helps,well if you do think again bullying hurts and does not help.If someone is being bullied help them or get a adult. People all around the world hurt or kill themselfs because of this thing bullying Stand up for yourself and others. Treat others the way you want to be treated and you would not want to be bullied so do not bully others. Bullying can not do any good but it can cause harm. Please speak up and remember be a buddy not a bully.Bullying needs to end sometime, so why not try to make it end now!!???
