I know how it feels to be bullied. Others think it's not bullying since they don't see me show any negative respond to it. I know it is not easy, especially when the your emotions get involve. You start crying when your alone, and you try to hide it to not make a big fuss out of it. But now, I have learned to stand up for myself. There are still times that I get bullied though.

I have been bullied for as long as I can remember. I am finally "fitting in", but think over how much it hurt to be called names and to be made fun of, well, it really hurts me to know that others go through the same thing so I signed the petition so others don't have to go through the same things as I did.

Kayla - 14 - Ohio

I was bullied in school because of my religion. I'm Muslim and people talk to me like im mental and tease me by calling me a terrorist and telling me to go back to where i belong. I'm going into the seventh grade and last year when Osama bin Ladan died people started rumors that i hate America and that i wanted to kill all Americans. By lunch time everyone hated me and they were calling me fat and saying they were sorry for my loss. I told my friends about what was going on and one of my friends told her mom that i was being bullied and she called the school. The next day i was at lunch talking to my friend Ashley  and the princapal talk to me about the bullying  and the bullying stopped. I happy to be who i am and Demim Lovato is my inspiration to stand up for myself.

I have never been bullied, but I have seen it happen in my high school many times. After seeing some of the stories on this page it made me want to do something about it. Some of these stories literally made me tear up. Next time I see bullying happen in my school I will stand up and say something. 

annonymous - 16 - Cedartown, Georgia, USA

I have been bullied and I still am, I want to help this team so I signed the petition. My friends say they care about me and then they go and tell the bully about my private life and secrets. They are obviously  no longer my friends but it hurts me to lose them one by one.. When I saw Demi Lovato's video on facebook I came straight on the website. When I get called names like fat ugly and much, much more I cry all time but when I listen to peoples comment I realize that I ain't alone, so people who reading this sign the petition. The worst moment for me was when I was walking home alone The bully would step on the back off my shoes and make me fall to the ground and when I fell to the ground they would laugh but then when I got up the called me a bisexual. Please help people like me cuz everywhere in the world their is a person crying for help but no one is listening so LISTEN!!!! Please help because I can't take it anymore.

The World Says NO to BULLING 

Jennifer - 16 - Australia

When I was little I was bullied. I didn't think much of it cause they were just trying to scare me. But one day the two boys beat me up and as much as i fought they won by putting a seatbelt around my neck and clipping it shut. I was being choked and the guys doing this to me were just laughing. And no one helped me until i was strapped in for a good two minutes. Though I know everyone heard me because I screamed for the bus driver to help but the bus was so loud that he couldn't hear me. They finally let me go when a little girl screamed to stop. At first I thought she was my savior, but now that I'm older I see that she was as bad as them because I was already strapped in for a good couple of minutes before she said anything. I got off the bus but the damage was done. I had lines where the seatbelt cut into my throat. The worse part about it was that they weren't suspended or expelled. They only got two days off of the bus. I'm a loner and still probably will be bullied. But, my parents are here to support me as long as I don't throw the first punch. Sadly, most parents aren't there for their kids or don't even know their being bullied. It needs to stop, because as much as it makes people stronger, it also weakens them and makes them seperate from everything that could help them.It makes them build a wall to protect them and I know they hate it as much as I hate wearing it. 

Gabrielle - 13 - CT

I've been bullied and I have bullied others.
I didn't realize what I was doing was bullying at the time, but after i took some time to look at the situation and re-think the things I'd said I understood how it was bullying. Honestly i was just jealous of the girl I bullied. I appologized to her but she never did forgive me, not that I blame her, I probably would have done the same thing in her postion.

I've been bullied most of my life, eventually it kind of just stopped bothering me. People would make fun of my hair and my weight. They called me awful names. I just stopped caring what they think. 
The only thing that kept me going was knowing that I would only have to put up with it for a few years.

I'm homeschooled now, I chose to homeschool so I could get the education I need without being ridiculed for being smart.

Britt - 15 - Canada

Some stories I hear are people who have been bullied for years and years. I've only been bullied for a year. Yet, I am so affected by it. I was just talking to my friend over texts and all of a sudden a girl started to text me from their phone. I've been called ugly, anorexic, manly, a fish, easy, and they told me I should kill myself. Then she gave my number to her friends who then started to also call and text me the same thing. Bullying hurts. And all I needed was someone to talk to.

Hannah - 13 - Massachusetts

I was first bullied when I was in 3rd grade.. There were 2 girls that i knew in New Jersy that were pretty mean, so I talked to my mother and I told her that i wanted to go far, far away from that school and thats what she did and I thought i was going to be happy then but... I went to portugal, the place that I was born. I actally didnt know how to talk portuguese anymore,  So i was bullied of my accent and how i was dressed, beacause the fashion was really diferent. Then when people started to know me there were other 2 girls ( i dont know why i am always bullied from 2 girls HARD!) that didnt like me at all they would put people against me and call me names. When I would work that out they would me my friends for weeks and then it was over. I got tired of going home crying so I asked my mother for help and it got worse, they started teasing me saying that I could not defend by myself so we moved to spain and here... is actually better, because they dont make fun of you accent, they try to help you, they are nice and they think that having one more (me) is great and here i am  happy! I am now in 8th grade, imagen the pain i went threw.

Ana - 12 - Spain

i have been bullied about my weight for a long time. not always to my face but behind my back which is sometimes worse because they know what they are doing is wrong. whether its cyber bullying, verbal bullying or physical bullying it always hurts. you may not always want to tell somebody because you dont think they would care but trust me they do. trust in others to help you. you dont deserve to be bullied. nobody does.

jenna - 13 - california

I was bullied in school...but I started making a fool of myself so than others began to talk with me and they finally know who I really am and they stop bullying at me...Now I have friends and I am happy but sometimes I regret that I made a fool of myself now almost nobody takes me seriously...I'm just someone who makes fun and I think that this is not me.

Life is tough for everyone. So why complicate it even more with insults, bullying and hatred among themselves...

Magdalena - 14 - Czech Republic, Prague

the reason i care about this cause is because i have been bullied my self and it is a massive problem in schools all over the world and i think its time to make a stand.

andrew - 15 - uk doncaster

I have not been bullied but I feel sorry for the bullies. Nobody deserves to be bulied. Everyone's the same. We all should be treated the same way.

Shona - 11 - Wales

"I have been bullied about my weight for as far back as i can remember. The only times i ever feel pretty is when im alone and there is no one there to tell me im not. being bullied is nothing to joke about. People say words can't hurt you but they can, and i have known that my whole life. Everyday on my way to school i wonder who is going to call me fat and ugly today. I want everyone to know that bullying isn't right no matter what the reason is. "

Brittany - 13 - Illinois

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.

Angela - 14 - California

When I first started being bullied it ruined my freshman year. I have always been apart of the popular crowd and I had never been bullied in my life. But it got so bad I wanted to switch out of a school that I love. I never want anyone to have to go through what I went through. I care because NOBODY deserves to be treated poorly. I wish I knew how to figure out how to help the cyber bullying cause. 

Courtney - 15 - Montana

Bullying is an issue that isn't addressed enough. Teens need to realize that even though being in the cool group is what everyone wants, it won't matter when we grow up. Stand up for what is right!!! We can change the world.  The fight against bulling starts with me. 

Delanie - 12 - Nashville, TN

   I know what they're going through. I still am. I know others who are too. I want to take a stand and represent. Bullying is wrong. It should be stopped because bullying hurts. It hurts lives. It hurts the lives of kids, parents, adults, and others. I AM taking a stand! ♥

Corinne - 13 - Virginia

I've been bullied, about my voice at school, people would always ask 'why do you talk like a baby?' ever since people started asking me that question, I stopped talking to keep them from asking that. I would only talk for class if I had to read something out loud or only talk to my friends, but now everyone asks why I dont talk much. I just dont know what to do or say anymore.

Angela - 12 - Colorado

There's a guy that Iknow that is getting bullied online. I want to help, but whatever I do, this other guy wont stop being mean. I just wish that nobody got bullied. It just feels really sad.

Grace - 12 - California

i never been bullied and i am not the bully but sometimes the bullies are talking about me behind my back that i am "weird" because i defend the children who are getting bullied. but i am glad that i do it BULLYING IS A PETHATIC THING AND WE MUST STOP IT! the end of bullying starts with US. <3 MUCHLOVE

sarah - 14 - Belgium

I care because i know how much bullying can hurt someone. I have never been bullied, and i have not been a bully. But if i see someone in need i help them out. Anyone can come talk to me and cry to me and just vent if they need to. People just need to realize it hurts. I'm really sorry for anybody who has been bullied, picked on, or just put down. It hurts and I'm here for all of you.

Valerie - 14 - Wa

I've been bullied by my friends, and i know how it feels like
They used my bad memories as their weapon to attack my heart, i'm being down for months, and i feel like i want to die quickly(suicide)
"You're egoist! You talk bad behind me so i don't have friends! Now i'm gonna give you the payback!" that's what he said to me
I am not talking bad about him, it's his own fault, he's giving us porn video, using bad words everytime, and, punching my best friend, and he's calling his mother to scold me
It is very hurt.

Now i try to fight back, and support my junior that being bullied too

Be strong, it's not your fault, they're just wanting you to be a scum, and they're gonna step on your head
You have my full support if you having the same problem like me
You have me on your back ;)

Nana - 14 - Medan, Indonesia

I was bullied in middle school. It led me to do some things that I regret now. I don't want anyone to go through what I went through. Bullying isn't right, nor is it justified, for any reason at  all! I just want to help someone because i iknow i can and it's the rihgt thing to do.

shermaine - 16 - kentucky

When I was 9 years old, my mother brought my siblings & I to America. So basically I started school as a 4th grader & everything was no one had a problem with me of not speaking english. Until I went to 5th grade, where I was jumped by the 2 of my classmates. Everyone in my class hated me more than anything, they treated me poorly the whole class! Until one day, it was lunch period & I was sitting alone, suddenly my classmate slapped me behind my head! Everyone laughed & cheered. Everday after school this guy would hit me! So basically I cried everyday at school & I never told mom not once! Now I'm in the 7th grade & everyone still treates me like crap! but I keep my head up high because I know that I will something someday! & Yeah I was left back a grade that year & I still struglle with everything! But I think about suicide now, because of my mother & just family in general. I'm leaving with pain & everyday I pretend nothing is wrong with me! When inside, I honestly dont want to live anymore. My mother knows I'm in pain but I guess she just doesnt care! its all about her! & what she's been through. I dont have any friends to talk to & never had. We're very poor, I hardly get clothes. SO EVERYONE OUT THERE WHO DOESNT WANT TO LIVE, I WANT YOU TO GO TO A QUIET PLACE & THINK ABOUT YOUR FUTURE & WHAT U WANT! Especially the kids who have supportive families, YOU'RE VERY LUCKY!
