READ IT ALL PLEASE WE LOVE

i believe that people should not bully others. the reason i believe that is that when people bully me it doesn?t feel good and people shouldn?t have to go through that. It's not so fun being called names, pushed around, or anything like that, I care because I believe that we as a world can come together to prevent bullying from happening. Bullying is a very serious cause and causes much, much damage on the victim's life. I care because I too was bullied. 
over the years i?ve been bullied a lot. for multiple reasons, my hair looking crazy or me not wearing the latest clothing. bullying is in our nature so we just can't help it. it has became so harsh, theres cyber, verbal, physical, and social ways to be bullied people getting beat up, people have been overcome with depression or even anorexia maybe they even committed suicide. Therefore, we need to stick together and be nice to one another. If you're the bully, take a walk in your victim's shoe and see how it feels to them.
It breaks my heart that people get bullied,including me. I don't understand why people think its ok to hurt someone from the inside and out.I  never want anyone to have to face bullying. we are all different. Everyone judges someone even if they don't know the person.

I dont want others to make themselves feel invisible like the people they bully and I feel the urge to speak up for the bullied.

I care because, I've seen students being bullied. The students balling up inside and having no one to turn to, its a terrible thing. When I were to see someone being bullied I'd help the one becoming bullied. It's not right, nobody deserves to become bullied. If we don't help the ones who are being bullied then were just as bad as the one who is doing the bullying. STOP BULLYING!

i have been bullied before from being told to kill myself, stabbed in the hallway at school,pushed into lockers, and hate pages about me on social media. It really bugs me that my school says that they can't do anything about this. So basically they are saying that from people causing me some medical issues and depression they won't do anything about it. So all this anger and sadness about all of this has made me want to do anything to prevent bullying from happening to others. Lets all pitch in together to stop bullying!

All my years in elementary, I was bullied because I was a very shy and quiet person. I would never talk to anyone and I always had my head down, thinking when will this end. Around 3rd grade I was depressed and had suicidal thoughts, I had no friends nobody to talk to. Until my mom noticed right away. Because of her, i am not the same kid anymore. When I started middle school I was made fun of but my mother was by my side the whole time. She is the reason why I am here today. Yes, it is hard but you just have to talk to some and realize it will get better :) You are not alone.

I was bullied and I still am. I come home crying every day off the bus because people would call me really bad names and say stuff about me that isn't true. i didn't tell my parents anything and I hid all of my feelings because I was always told that the bullies like it when you show emotion to their actions. I am still scared to even walk down the hall ways because I used to get binder slapped and pushed into lockers and beat up. everyone would text me and tell me everything wrong with myself. that made me very  self concious and feel like I wasn't wanted, I turned to self harm to help. all of this stuff happening to me made me servierly depressed. and I just want everyone to know that hurting yourself doesn't help.  And if YOU feel like you're not wanted think again because you are, and to make you feel even better just think... there are thousands of cells in your body fighting to keep you alive and all that they care about it you. I am here for you.  please remember that you are strong. you are gorgeous and you are perfectly you.

I care because as a kid, I was very quiet and shy.  Because of this, I think people took advantage and bullied me.  As I'm older and have kids of my own, he tells me stories of how cruel kids can sometimes be.  I think this is a very common thing.  He stands up for himself but that doesn't mean the comments do not hurt him.

Bullying is poison that pleasures bullies. Like a drug, it starts slow and steadily increases. Unless substituted with compassion and forgiveness bullies will not stop. Students, you know who these people are. DO SOMETHING RIGHT NOW! You may the one voice for someone who is in deep pain. I wish someone would have helped me when I was younger. I forgive all the bullies in my life and take on the responsibility as an educator to help those students in need.

Sometimes people can hide what they really feel and you never know what they are feeling until they are gone.. So speak up and do something before its to late.. There's no such thing as having too many friends... So make a new one a bring someone up!

It gets a little weird when I get to school every morning because I remember the time I got bullied in class because I mixed up something. And then Cooper yelled out "hey guys! Jack mixed up his letters!" Everyone laughed except for Megan who stood up for me. So she made me feel better.

I don't think it's right. I've been bullied since I was 5. Mostly because of wearing glasses, my name, my body shape, and the way I act. I don't see why people bully; it's not right. Don't let anyone bring you down. Be yourself. Trust me; letting them bring you down isn't gonna do anything it's gonna make it worse. I tried to hold it all in that my friend saw me at the bus stop crying and I told her I wanted to die. She's my bff and helps me through it. Even though I still don't believe. If you're a girl; I suggest for you to watch the "Bethany Mota Draw My Life" video. She's really inspiring. Also if it wasn't for Disney Channel; I would've never found this webpage or laughed like crazy. You're unique and on of a kind. Don't let anyone tell you otherwise.

I care because it absolutely breaks my heart to read these stories. It is so important to understand that you are more than words that cruel people speak. Every person on earth is meant to be here and deserves to be treated with love and respect. Unfortunately that's not always the case. PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE I urge all of you young women and men to reach out and get help. Stop hurting yourselves STOP starving yourselves Stop believing the hurtful things people say. Somebody does love you and somebody does think your beautiful and somebody DOES CARE. Look inside yourself and love yourself. Don't let anybody make you feel like your not worth being loved. Because you are. I wish I could take all the negativity out of this world but that's impossible. Middle school and high school is just the very beginning of your life and a very short part of it. Love yourself and be kind to yourself. Don't let anyone take away your spirit, don't let anyone make you feel bad for who you are. And most importantly remember YOU ARE LOVED YOU ARE IMPORTANT AND YOU ARE BEAUTIFUL.

I wasn't picked on much growing up, but I did witness many situations of it and at times i think i may have been a part of it when i was younger. I've had kids speak to me about bullying and I have felt their pain. Bullying has a big affect on people even those that laugh along when you "play around" with them. We never really know the affect words or actions have on others because many are so good at hiding it. Bullying needs to stop and put to an end.

My daughter gets bullied everyday by this one kid named Kyle, I try to help her out and lift up her spirits as much as possible.  Thats what you should do when you see any kind of bullying. Stand up. Tell an adult. Do something to help that person.

Bullying is not right to people because some people have things going on in life.

It's so terrible knowing that people have to deal with this. I was bullied and I got help but not everyone can be so lucky. I hope this yearly UNITY day brings to light how hard it is for people...

I was bulled once in 3rd grade . In lunch or recess because she would make fun of me, or just tease me, and call me names so just went and just ignored her. She kept teasing me so now I never stopped thinking if she'll come to my school and tease me. One time she told my friends to stop talking to me. So now i'm crying in the inside and out. That's my story on how I got bulled.

I care because I was bullied everywhere I went with either funny looks and or verbal words.just remember you're beautiful and don't let anybody tell you different. When your bully don't let them push you down or break your confidince because they break your confidence it is hard  getting it back for a while so just remember that you are beautiful and you'll be fine and don't let them tell you that nobody out there cares because there are millions of people out there who care including me I care about what people say and who they are based onwhat other people think like how they look or how they talk because I know that there are people out there who would rather have you be happy and being a friends instead of you crying in a corner and not having any friends vs being happy and having millions of friends.

I was bullied grade 4- grade 8 and in the first three semesters in college. I wasn't only bullied by the kids who I tried to fit in with but I was also bullied by teachers who called me dumb and useless. I had to face the stupidest people who used a parents' death to bully me. I care because I have nieces and I do not want them to go through what I went . I want them to show these happiness deprived people how they are stronger than them . Bullying does not only take in America it also takes place in countries like Pakistan , India . In other words , all over the world . I hope the best for everyone all around the world and hope that someday bullying does get abolished.
