I want to stop bullying because i don't want any one to feel or see the horrible treatment i do! When people do it to me or some one else its so terrible that you don't want people to see you upset!
Brittney, 13, DE
I've been bullied since I was in kindergarten, people made me feel worthless. I hated school I felt miserable all day. Last year I got very depressed because I was bullied and felt so worthless. everyday now I pretend to be happy, it's so hard. I'm bullied because I listen to different music wear different clothes. I'm bullied for who I am and no person should feel this way. Everyone is beautiful in their own way and no one should be bullied for that. I care because no one deserves to feel worthless.

There are people who wake up each morning with dread, scared to go to school because they fear what might happen. Will they be teased on the bus? Kicked down in the hallway? They won't know till the go and find out. It hurts them emotionally and physically when they enter a building they no longer feel safe in. They may feel as if they have no one to talk to or rely on. So when you ask me why I care. Just remember that your best friend could be the person I'm talking about. Or even you. It is a choice to be a bully. It was never a title to deserve. Be the best person you can be.
