I Care Because
You are more than what bullies call you. You are who you are, but you are not the mean names they call you or try to categorize you as. You are better so don't let them get you down. You are nice, friendly and fun, and smart. Talk to someone you trust it will help because it helped me when someone called me names on the internet. I used to believe her and it put me down but i wont put me down because of someone mean.

I have been bullied before and it doesn't feel good to feel like your going to get beat up everyday you go to school. I get bullied everyday by people that hate me I have no idea why they hate me i don't know what I did wrong, sometimes they lie about me and make me have to go to the pricable for something that I didn't even do but I eventually get over it, it doen't feel good to get bullied and I want it to stop.

There are people who wake up each morning with dread, scared to go to school because they fear what might happen. Will they be teased on the bus? Kicked down in the hallway? They won't know till the go and find out. It hurts them emotionally and physically when they enter a building they no longer feel safe in. They may feel as if they have no one to talk to or rely on. So when you ask me why I care. Just remember that your best friend could be the person I'm talking about. Or even you. It is a choice to be a bully. It was never a title to deserve. Be the best person you can be.

"I see it going on all around me and I hate it! What I hate the most is that I can't be my self. I get made fun of for haveing trouble in school and how I dress. I like to stay home as much as I can but I don't whant my parents to know what is going on. I also see my little sis getting made fun of all the time and I don't know what to do. And It really bugs me how I just go along with it when ppl are talking about my own family. I try to do something about it and it just gets worse and I get picked on even more. I just wish ppl could see how much the things they do and say hurt. I just want it to stop."
