Safa , 10, Minnesota
I care because I definitely been builded my whole life by people from school and even my family and no one should ever feel the way I'm feeling everyday because no one deserves that.

I care beacuse me and all of my friends still get bullied for how we look ,how we talk, and how we dress. The nice thing is that all my friends have each other and we never listen to them. We listen to each other.

I care because i dont think anyone should be bullied for who they really are.

My son was bullied to the point where this other child broke his hand last year. He cried every time he went to school or came home from school. We need to teach our children to embrace diversity and individuality. Parents-you are the role models - teach your children well!

I've been cyberbullied over a phone and computer. Kids telling me for about 3years they dont like me, infact they HATE me. And they hate me so much they wanted me dead. They wanted me dead so much they were willing to do it themselves. Inviting me over to play with their pocket knives was just the beginning. When will they learn to stop? When i finally press charges? It shouldn't take that much to get you to realize that that's enough! Just stop already!

Bullying can make people want to hurt themselves and make people mad.
Alex, 12, north georgia
I care because I can not stop thinking that maybe the person who bully someone..doesn't really know how much pain he/she makes. Maybe they think that they words can not hurt the people. But they do. I have been bulying...and it's one of the worst feeling ever. I lost my mom, and for somehow it's pretty cool to make fun of that..I support people who doesnt feel very good..and for somehow it's pretty cool to make fun of that. And finally, I'm not perfect..and it's pretty funny call me a "STAR" {5 tips, fat, ugly, weird} yeah..words can be painful. so be careful the next time you say something Stay strong people!! and keep smiling..you never know who can fall in love with your smile.
