I Care Because
every child should have the right to attend school in a safe and respectful educational environment. Children can be so cruel to one another. They need to be taught tolerance and kindness at home so it becomes second nature to them in all walks of their lives. School should be an exciting place for children to go to, not something they fear.

I have been bullied by a clique of boys and girls who spread rumors and gossip to put people down. It caused many people to avoid me and feel embrassed to be seen hanging out me. Even after switching schools, it has still continued and no one wants to be my friend. They call me a freak, disgusting and other mean things. I never understood why they did this and how the bullies could act like nothing happened after this event. Hopefully justice will be served one day and bullying will be stomped out . No one should ever go through this because it's a horrible event.

I used to bully people a lot, but then it started getting back to me and I hated the way it felt. I feel that if you have to talk bad about someone to make yourself look good, then you should take a long hard look in the mirror. I still get bullied to this day, but I brush it off my shoulder. I'm a cheerleader and it comes from all the football players, but that's just how it is at my school.

I've experienced it. Because it's terrible. I don't want anyone else to go through it. I want people to be able to go to work or school and feel safe, welcome, and not alone. I care because I believe that TOGETHER we truly can STOP BULLYING!!!!!!!!!!

Bullying never really goes away. I am 20 years old and have been bullied since I was 6. I still get bullied to this day. This a pain I've had to deal with for 14 years of my life. Time has not healed my wounds. People need to realize that their actions can effect someone's life forever. We need to come together to put an end to bullying once and for all.
