I Care Because
bullying is wrong. period. no matter what form it is, it is still wrong. i have been bullied in the past and it does not feel good. if you are a bully put yourself in your victims place. how would you feel? not so good, huh? point: bullying hurts.

I was bullied. At the time, I was afraid to get help because the bully was using cyber-bullying against me and not physically hurting me, so I felt like maybe I was being over-sensitive. In reality, ANYONE who intentionally intimidates or harms you is bullying you. My advice: stand up for yourself. Get help/support from your friends and family. You shouldn't have to deal with bullying alone. Don't be afraid to stand up to the bully. If you don't stand up to him/her yourself, he/she will never stop. After I stood up to the bully, I felt liberated and finally able to be myself again. Don't just run away from the bully -push the bully out of your life.

bullying is not right, no matter what others say. everyone deserves to be treated the same, so if someone is bullying you stand up for yourself. they don't know the real, kind, smart, funny you. stand up for others, too! i was bullyed by someone in second grade, and it is still fresh in my memory. she was just walking into the classroom, and she said "is that your best shirt?" and i was really emmbarrased because everyone else was laughing. bullying is not a joke. help out. people need you. live. laugh. love. stop bullying. :) :P :D
