I Care Because
I do not like seeing others hurting. I care because any type of pain for a child or teen is wrong and needs to be stopped.
Kateena, 39, texas
Bullying is done by those who don't have anyone to teach them better or want to enjoy seeing others suffer. I was a victim of bullying from kindergarten through middle school. I spoke to the superintendent of my local school out of concern for others who might be facing the same thing I went through. Bullying. It took years of therapy to get over the past—the name-calling, etc. But I hope that we can look to see a brighter future for future generations.

I am a social outcast, to say the least. Everything I do is critiqued by my peers. I am dead meat, and they are preying vultures. I have build a very thin shell around myself, but on some days, it's not enough. I don't want anyone else to live life going through what I do. I know bullying can't ever TOTALLY go away, but I want to do all I can to try.

I have been bullied for years & due to this I'm being homeschooled. My mom tried to help but people don't communicate and nothing was done. I feel alone and angry.
Ronnie, 15, KY
I have been bullied my whole life, and it needs to be stopped. No one deserves to be afraid to go to school, go home, or to even keep living. We all need to band together to help prevent other cases of bullying from popping up to torment other students.

I've been bullied too. It's not so fun being called names, pushed around, or anything like that, I care because I believe that we as a world can come together to prevent bullying from happening. Bullying is a very serious cause and causes much, much damage on the victim's life. I care becuase I too was bullied. Therefore, we need to stick together and be nice to one another. If you're the bully, take a walk in your victim's shoe and see how it feels to them. Why do succh a thing to an innocent person? Thank you for reading. I really needed to get this off my chest.
Mariah, 15, Cali
when i was in 8th grade nasty rumors went around school abou mte, it ruined my life & even till this day the girls who started it still continue it in high school & it suckz, but i learned to get over it & just realize to be me & none of it is true so i shouldnt care what people think ... this goes out to everyone getting bullied, tell someone you trust, dont keep it to yourself, take these matters serious. dont let nobody bring you down ! stay stong & dont ever think bad about yourself, everyone is beautiful in their own special way ! STAY STRONG & MAKE SURE YOU LET PEOPLE KNOW ANY RUMORS ABOUT YOU ARE NOT TRUE & DONT LET IT GET TO YOU.
