I Care Because
If this is happening "all the time," then you should report it. A one-time incident can be ignored, but if your friend is constantly harrassed, this is bullying and it is wrong!

I was bullied throughout my life AND STILL AM. I hate the feelings of depression I get throughout the day. Sometimes I don't want to go to school because I'm afraid. I care because I know the horrible feeling one gets from getting bullied- and I HATE IT. Why can't people understnag we have feelings :( . Instead of bullying people, STICK UP FOR THEM.

I was bullied when i was little and to this day still suffer from the effects. I have self harmed and been anerexic since i was 13. People always say that sticks and stones may break your bones but names can never hurt you. It is so untrue... names and things people say hurt way more than hits. Trust me i've dealt with both. Bullying is in no way cool and i hope with ever fiber in my body that if enough people stand up that it can be stopped once and for all. BULLYING HURTS!

I care because i feel like i've been bullied so much. Not only directly to me but behind my back and the way people act around me. I've been bullied because of how i have facial hair and i'm a girl and how chubby my cheeks are. My parents don't haven't allowed me to remove the facial hair because they say i'm not old enough.... I care because when you're bullied you need to stand up for yourself and gain your self confidence back. Bullying definitely weakens your confidence but i learned to fight it. Be confident with who you are. Who you are inside and your personality will show who you really are rather than an unconfident, quiet person who's easy to pick on. Stand up for yourself and stay strong!
