I Care Because
We shouldn't need a reason to care. We all should just out of the kindness of who we are. To anyone that has been bullied... Never give in you're not alone. In the darkest times there are always people that care no matter what. Nobody is worthless, Keep your head held high, Stay strong, And most importantly Be Yourself.

I used to get bullied all the time in grade school, for being to skinny I was always left alone I had no friends no one to turn to when I just wanted to let everything out. I would of told one of my parents,but they wouldn't listen always more worried about what my little sister had to say. I don?t want people people to go through the same thing I did Im telling all of you this, because I wanted to tell you don?t listen to those haters they are just wanting to make others feel worthless because thatś the way that they fell. Tell a trusted teacher or sibling, trust me It will get better I know from experience. I hope you all are smiling you all are amazing in every way, thank you for reading this if you did I am writing this from my heart, Lots of LOVE Jessica. <3

im poor,so yes i am made fun of. im chubby,so yes i am made fun of. i am short, so ya they make fun of me. i am very insecure and have scars from cutting. it hurts more because i dont really have someone or anyone to talk to. i want to talk about it, but the way they might react doesnt set well in my stomache. so i keep to myself. i try so hard to be strong and ignore the rude comments. but you cant ignore. it all just piles up in your brain and finally you break down crying. ive shed so many tears,i dont think i have any left to cry out. so,i care because it has and still is effecting me,horribly.

Me and my friends are bullied every day for being smart and normal, not boy crazy and mean. I have no idea what I did to these people, but they seem to hate me and my BFF Rach the most. We never did anything, honest. They refuse to work with us, call our names out, and call us derigitory things. I go to a Catholic school, which makes everything harder, because our teachers refuse to believe these kids would do anything. I wanna leave school so bad, and I cry a lot. I want to stop this NOW.
