I've been bullied since my peers could talk. My wrists bleed every night. I don't want anyone to go through that. It hurts internally and externally. Help me.
Reagan, 12, Georgia
Bullying not only hurts the victim, but also the perpetrator. It is a sign that the perpetrator has already been experiencing a lot of pain himself/herself. The sad part is that neither of them have received either the proper care, nurturing, or education to prevent this horrible act. It reflects so poorly on all of us as a society, and in the end, we ALL pay.

I onced was bullied sometimes i still am i stick up for people who are bullied. i was bullied cause of how slow i learn im not the fastest learner but i try, i get made fun of cause i fail almost every test and quiz.
