I heard about a kid who committed suicide because he was bullied so bad. Made me feel awful.

My so-called friend posted fake pictures of me and some nasty guy on her Facebook page, and my boyfriend saw it and dumped me. That's messed up.

I had a chance to stop some bullying last year, but I didn't cuz I was scared. Still feel bad about that.

My son will start kindergarten next year, and I do not want him or any child to be subjected to the same kind of misery I went through as a target of bullying.  Changing the bully-or-be-bullied mentality will make our schools safer, our children happier, and us parents less worried.

My son suffers from anxiety and he IS the bully.  It is part of his defense.  If he bullies others, he gives them the reason not to like him and in his mind, he maintains control of the rejections.   I care because I want to help him stop. He really wants to stop too because he really just wants friends, he is just so scared of rejection.

Bullying is simply wrong, hurtful, and mentally debilitating. It lowers self-esteem and self respect.

I was bullied in school and no one did anything to stop it.

Bullying has life long effects. No one should have to go to school each day and fear being bullied.
