I care because I have had personal experiences with bullying. It's not right to put someone down just to bring you to the illusion that you are better than them. I hope that those who bully will eventually realize tat what they are doing is wrong.

I care because when my son was battered on the school bus the school didn't do anything about it till I stood up. I care because some times the people who should, don't.

All through elementary school I was bullied and I know how it feels. In class now, for our bell-ringers we have to write a paragraph everyday and almost everything I've written has been about it. People don't seem to realize the words they're saying hurt. I went through it and I know how it is. I'm planning on getting my school involved. I care because that was me up until I moved. I feel it too, guys. Remember that you're loved. <3

"My brother is 16 and has a cognitive disability. All my life I've seen people who bully kids who don't know how to fight back or just straight up cant. I go to school and I see kids with cognitive disabilities who have a frown on their face until I tell them hello and give them a hug, because kids these days and even adults look down on children like my brother with faces that say they don't belong. You can't walk anywhere anymore without getting a dirty look from anyone. I love my brother and I care because cognitive disabilities, Gay, Parentless, and even Homeless kids cant stand for themselves."
