I Care Because
These stories really touch my heart
Hien Minh, 12, Hanoi, VN
When I was in 6th grade, I had a problem with licking my lips...it got so bad that it spread to my chin and not only was it sore all the time...but i would get picked on for it. I would be called "the bearded lady" all the time. And it hurt me a ton. But, thankfully I had my three best friends to stand by me and help me through it. And we need to put an end to bullying because how many lives have to be lost to see the damages it does to people.

I care because i was bullied before. Bullying people is the worst thing you can do to someone. The group of girls that bullied me tried to beat me up and ruin my life. One of them lied to my Mom and the others just wrote me hate notes and wrote inside of my desk with a sharpie. After a while i felt so misrable i had panic attacks. My Mom and Dad got me a therapist, but it didn't help. What those girls would do to me was so mean. My principal and I had a lot of talks. They said it was normal midddle school problems. They didn't help and i ended up switching schools in the middle of the year. My new friends are so nice and i m finally happy. The only thing that makes me sad is knowing that because i left someone else might be getting hurt by those same girls. Bullying needs to stop.

Deliberately ignoring or leaving other students out is bullying. Teachers and Staff are just as respondsible for not being responsible for the protection of the children in their care during the school day . As a child I was bullied and believe me you don't forget how it made you feel . Our Public Schools need to start Communicating and remembering the Golden Rule, "Do unto others as you would have them do unto you ." dld

I am tired of having no friends, or having friends who dont care. It hurts, it hurts when you are stomped on and mistreated. Having no one to have your back. NEVER EVER hurt somene because it makes you feel good or you want to impress someone, it is not and never going to be worth all the pain you cause to a person.
