I Care Because
At my school, there is not much bullying happening. People care about each other, and if they don't like someone, they just don't talk to them. For instance, there this kid named Havi. He has autism, but when he walks around, people say his name, give him high fives, and listen to what he has to say. Other kids in my school that are different may bring in action figure or stuffed animals. Instead of people saying that that is weird and they should stop bringing them, they say something like, "Spider man, my favorite. cool action figure." I care because I want more schools to be like this one

Tell your parents. Tell a teacher. If that doesn't work, then tell a different teacher, tell the principal or tell the counselor. And keep on telling until something gets done to stop the bullying. Don't keep quiet about it.

As a child I was bullied pretty harshly in Elementary school. As I approached High School I became the bully. It was a terrible cycle that played out. Now I am older and as I look back I see that cycle. I cannot help or change what I experienced or did in the past. I cannot heal the hurt I have caused. This I understand.

I was cyber bullied, verbally bullied, and sometimes physically bullied because I went through pubery early. I was abandoned by all the people I thought were my friends and I hated it. I didn't go to an adult and I regret that. I care because I don't ever want anyone to feel all the pain and suffering I had to go through. I care because I want people to know that they aren't alone. That's it is okay to be different, because you are you and that is beautiful.

bullying is something thaat will effect a person for the rest of their lives and has serious consequences. I knew a girl in high school who was consantly bullied. She would tell teachers, but nothing changed. She became depressed as a direct result of bullying and ended up taking her own life. Please don't ever let this happen to someone you know. Bullying is a serious problem and needs to stop!
