I Care Because
I care because no one deserves to be afraid to go to school like I was, and nobody knows that the victim might have a disability or problems at home. I speak from experience..

I care because I've been suffering from bullying for a very long time. Because of it, I've begun to self harm, as well as suffer from depression, anorexia and unrequited love. I don't want anyone to suffer the way I did. Nobody deserves to be tortured in this hurtful way.

Tyler, 11, unknown
When I was 6 years old, I was bullied everyday of my life. I grew up hating myself so I got addicted to cutting myself by the age of 10. I stopped for a while, but I relapsed just this year and started cutting again. Bullying can actually ruin peoples' lives. It ruined mine.

My 13 year old brother has Autism and is marked as a target for bullies because he's different. School life for him is miserable, and he doesn't have friends. I believe the bullying affects other parts of his life like school work.
Haley, 15, The United States
on a daily basis I see 200 students pass through my care. I want them to know that bullying is not acceptable, and there is support for them. I was once the victim... and I don't want my children or the children I care for to be the victim.
Laura, 32, PA
I am bullied at school and at first i did not want to talk, all i wanted to do is cry. This girl kept bullying me not to play with other people and just her. So after school that day I started being friends with other people and she saw me. She gave me the look and said why! I said I can be friends with everyone and she rolled her eyes and walked away and ever since then i have been killing her with kindness and I haved never been bullied by her or anyone!
