I Care Because
i have been bullied since i was in 3rd grade. it's not fair for people like this to go through what they have to go through each day at school. i have been hurt so badly, that i have believed a lot of what bullies say to me and about me. they have definately changed my life for the worst and have made me have suicidal thoughts. i just need to get out of being bullied, i can't take it.

The peson who is getting bullied shouldn't dervese it! I have been bullied and it hurt so much but I didn't have the guts to tell my mum. The person who was bullying me was one of my bestfriends (She isn't anymore). She kept on telling all my friends to not hang out with me so I went around bymeslf. NO ONE should feel lefted out or hurt! Some people just bully because their friends do or they think its funny but how would they feel when someone bullys them? If I had one wish I would wish that bullying stops now and let us live in a happy world. NO ONE should derverse this... NO ONE!

I see so many kids being bullied, I was bullied at a time, and am very succesful now. I want people to know that it will get better. People say it all the time but it's true. I believe that bullying can and will be able to stop some day. With everyone working together we can spread this message. Stay Strong!

Beacause I was once a bully and I regret doing it. I had to do a powerpoint about bullying then I realized how bad it was so I stoped, beacause i felt really bad.
Izzy Parker, 25, Teaxas
I have been bullied by a clique of boys and girls who spread rumors and gossip to put people down. It caused many people to avoid me and feel embrassed to be seen hanging out me. Even after switching schools, it has still continued and no one wants to be my friend. They call me a freak, disgusting and other mean things. I never understood why they did this and how the bullies could act like nothing happened after this event. Hopefully justice will be served one day and bullying will be stomped out . No one should ever go through this because it's a horrible event.
