I Care Because
I have been bullied. I know it hurts. People can be so cruel for no the smallest of reasons. Standing alone to bullying is almost impossible, and I know that now. Sometimes standing with friends who don't care about yuo can be even more excruciating. So I have advice for everyone who is being bullied BY "FRIENDS". A true friend cares, about you and those around them. If someone asks you to change yourself or to change others around them BY HURTING THEM, they are NOT true friends. It took years for me to truly grasp that. Now I have 2 best friends that I KNOW care about me. Today, me and my best friends stand UP to bulllying, and we do our best to help make our school a better one.

My brother gets bullied becasuse he has a cleff-pallet (Speaking disorder) And seeing how we're twins people like to pick on the both of us. It doesn't really bother me that I get picked on, but it bothers me to no end when it happens to my brother. We might fight a lot, but when it comes to something like that, I'm the first person to jump the bullys case over it. Since we moved to our new school he hasn't had any problems, and we've been able to meet new people and have new friends.

All my life I have seen people get bullied and it is not okay. When I first moved I was known as that weird girl no one wanted to be around. They started talking behind my back and saying things that really brought me down. It hurts. People don't understand that their words can really hurt someone. But now, 4 years later, I have an amazing group of friends and people who help me to look out for the victims and help them! Remember to always talk to someone if you need them. Your friends and family are the ones who will be by your side through it all :)

I care because I'm the person who gets bullied. I live everyday with kids calling me fat and ugly. I alway feel like I'm worthless. But when I get home I see my mom and dad and brother and sister and I tell myself that I have everything I need. I'm going to grow up and find the right person who loves me and I'm going to get a great job. So don't hurt yourself just because someone says something or does something mean to you because most of the time you're a lot better then them.
