I Care Because
I care because I know many people who are bullied. My friend Brady has been bullied close to every day at school, since second grade. It is summer, and we are going into 8th grade. He is sad a lot, and I can see right through his plastic smile. Another friend and I saw the movie Bully, and it made me cry. We are starting a permanent anti-bullying program at school. I encourage you to see Bully. Or start an anti-bully thing at school.Remember, the end of bullying begins with us.

I am a part of this world, I live in it and I love it and the people who reside in it. Especially those who are abused in any way shape or form for we all bleed red and we all hurt and we all deserve to feel good about ourselves despite our differences...we all breathe. Our differences are what makes us unique and special. For there is no one like me.

When I was 9 years of age, I was bullied verbally by my peers. Everyday I would enter class with hopes of a fun day but leave school with that lump in my throat. Being called names everyday is not fun and I definitely don't want anyone to go through it. Bullying is a prevalent issue and it should be tackled ASAP!

I was bullied this yer and still am every now and then. It stinks and I don't like it. I want to talk to someone and get help and discuss how I can get some help. I'm too afraid to tell my parents because they won't believe me or they will say something else. I just want to cry when it happens. What should I do and where can I get help?

I have never been bullied, but I have seen it happen in my high school many times. After seeing some of the stories on this page it made me want to do something about it. Some of these stories literally made me tear up. Next time I see bullying happen in my school I will stand up and say something.

I never really was bullied, but I always became friends to those who were bullied. Like last year, a girl named Laura she was new to the country and she made expressions that kids our school took it the wrong way. The would come up to her and say mean things. She was new, but she understood everything. I never called her names I actually gave her advice. And the funny thing was those girls who insulted her were actually my friends. Yea, my group was like the ones everyone scared. I dont want people to be scared of me. I like making friends the NICE way. So be an outcast of your group, even if they dont agree with you. It can make a difference,
