I Care Because
I care beacuse me and all of my friends still get bullied for how we look ,how we talk, and how we dress. The nice thing is that all my friends have each other and we never listen to them. We listen to each other.

I have been there. I care because I have seen my friends there. I care because I have seen strangers there. It is not a place that I want to be. No one should be there. No one deserves that.

Bullying is wrong. If you bully then nobody will be friends with you. If your being bullied you should never bully back.

I hate it when people bully. I admit I used to do that; not anymore. I want to help. I want this to end. I'm creating a webstie where kids like me can go and chat about it and try to stop it. Kids can help kids, teens can help teens. But really, both are the same. We are all the future generation of America. We have to help. Stop bullying. Only we can.

My little sister has a learning disability she is bullied on a daily basis. I hurt for her everyday because children with special needs struggle with everyday life and school should be an escape for them. Instead these children are made to feel like crap everyday just because they are a little different than eveyone else, but at the end of the day no matter what we are ALL human beings. Since she has became a high school student I take this bullying issue very seriously and sadly the public schools in Chicago don't. Hopefully some time soon bullying will be something very serious all around the world.

I think bullying needs to stop millions of kids are suffering from this terrible thing. Bullies are just kids who want to overpower others they want to make others feel bad about themselves. But don't let them bully you stand up for your rights and your friends. You are a human being and don't deserve to be treated like this. You are strong and everyone belives in you!!

I can relate. I've moved around a lot in my life, and I find people are very, shall we say unaccepting, towards stranger. I've had friends hurt me, strangers shove me, and people just randomly shove my stuff on the ground. Always remember that just because no one fully understands exactly what you've gone through, doesn't mean they can't help or just be there for you. Just because bullying happens everywhere, doesn't make it right. Find someone who will help you get out of the sadness-pit you fall into every time you think of the hurt. Cause the least they could do, is just sit in there with you.
