End Bullying now..... Bullying is world-wide and should be ended now

I care because everyone is human. Everyone has feelings. When I was in 4th grade, up until 6th or 7th people would make fun of me and call me mustachio because I had a bit of upper lip hair. They'd call me a guy, and it bothered me so much because obviously I am a girl. I hated it, I wanted to go away and never come back. Everyone needs to realize everything they say could potentially effect someone's life. Which could effect someone else's life. You could be the start of a horrible chain reaction.

In class we're learning a lot about bullying and you hear all these stories and think 'wow this really is happening to kids like me!' we're putting together a bully awareness presentation and we're making a video. I hope it helps others realize that putting others down doesn't make you better, it just changes people's view of you, normally for the worse.

I've been bullied since 1st grade. They call me fish girl because I have eczema on my wrists that look like fish scales. Bullying really hurts and it needs to stop.

I know the feel of being bullied or just being put down. people who bully often dont know what they do to people. they make people feel low, insecure, etc. and it discusts me. kids commit suicide because of bullying and it breaks my heart. everyone is beautiful, everyone is unique. thats what makes us...US. we werent meant to be a copy. everyone should embrace their own flaws along with everyone elses, be nice! treat people with respect! and most importantly, LOVE EACH OTHER💝

I was a victim all throughout elementary and some of middle school. It hurts because I never/still don't understand why I was a victim. A lot of people stood by and did nothing or joined in. I told my mom but she just brushed it off as did my teacher. And I never wanted to bring it up again because I just thought my problems were never important and everybody experienced this. This caused severe depression and my self-esteem was/is terribly low. I wish I knew how to forget about my experiences and I want to help prevent it from happening to anyone else.
