When I was younger, I was bullied. Then, just this past year, I realized that joking around with one of my friends, it was actually considered bullying, what I was doing. As soon as I figured that out, I stopped. But I still feel bad. Bullying can be unintentional. It just probably isn't common.

I care about bullying because when i was younger i was bullied and i also saw a lot of my friends get bullied. I know that i effects people negatively and its not something as small as people think. If we all stand up against bullying we can help those who are bullied so they dont have to be put down any more. you are better than oyu think and your vioce counts.

Bullying is the worst thing that happens in school. People say that words dont hurt people, but thats not true, words can hurt more than pushing someone. please stop bullying. think about other peoples life. your ruining their lives!

Bullying is a cruel punishment bestowed on weaker/younger individuals. Whenever I was in sixth grade all of the seventh, and eighth graders would make fun of us since we were younger. Back then I thought it was normal for them to bully us, but since I'm in eighth grade now I've found out this behavior is unacceptable! Kids never should feel that bullying is normal, and nobody deserves to be put down.

My Daughter Taylor gets bullied in school, she's had her head glued shut,she'd been bit, pushed off benches, called names. and made fun of the worst is that the school turns the other way and my daughter argues with me everyday about going to school. I've had several meetings with them and it falls on deaf ears. It needs to stop and more people need to take a stand against bullying. My heart goes out to all who endure the physical and emotional abuse of a bully.My daughter included.

When I was in elementary school I was bullied, it bothers me how people can get away with hurting someone.Words do hurt and it's time people understand that. No one has the right to tell you your Imperfect and that you need to change. You're perfect just the way you are...Don't let anyone tell you, you need to cahnge to fit in.

Bullying is not supposed to happen. No one is supposed to be inferior to another by any means. No one knows what happens in your daily life, so why would they judge? I'm going to do an assembly at my school about bullying and hopefully be able to spread the news to other schools in the United States. Words hurt. The end.

Kelsey - 17 - Maryland

I've been picked on since I was in 8th grade.  I've been called some really mean names.. I've gotten phone calls through the night telling me to die cause no one liked me.. I want to help people, because I don't want them to go through what I went through.. It was some of the roughest times of my life, and no one deserves it.

Bree - 16 - Indiana

I care because bullying is a serious issue that NEEDS to be stopped.

Maria Nieves - 16 - Connecticut

Bullying isn't a very easy thing to get rid of. More than 50% of students are bullied every year. But with the help of the community, our school board, and the students we can end bullying. I have been in your shoes, bullying was something I couldn't bear in 6th grade. So everyone do your part and end bullying!

Sam - 13 - South carolina

BULLYS ask your self this WHY do i bully? it makes no sence to do. Your saying that since someone thing happend to you doest mean you havet to do it to someone else. consequences of your actions can be good and bad... you choose.

shawn - 13 - South carolina

I care because a lot of people don't even know the half of whats happening and this issue really needs to be brought up more than it is because, the bullying that happens causes over 4,000 deaths a year. I know this is old but the story about the girl who got punched in the face because she didn't like a group called ICP (Insane Clown Posse) and its not like it was another girl either, it was a 15 boy who was on the wrestling team.

Megan - 15 - Florida

Bullying happens all around the world. At schools, outside of school or even at home. Bullying is horriable and it needs to stop. I myself have never been bullied and I'm glad for that but i have witnessed it. Many of my friends are bullied because their different so i have been able to see the effects of it. The sad thing is most people never even realize to do something about it. People need to rise against bullying and do something about it. People deserve to live a happy life without fear or sorrow. Be proud for who you are and never let anyone else tell you any different.

"I am a high school Vice Principal and I want children to know that we care and will listen and more importantly do everything in our power to protect each and every student. Please communicate with your parents, teachers, counselors and/our administrators. Let us know as soon as you are bullied or if you witness bullying. You are not tattling or ratting. Understand that the school and your parents have resources to help by stopping the bullying and helping you develop confidence and coping skills. We can contract the police if we need to. We can suspend the bully and require counseling for them. If someone threatens or bullies you through social networking. Print them out and give them to your parents and school administrators. If you can't, take a screen shot or keep it and show an adult. Please block these people or better yet, cancel your accounts. Give your parents access to your accounts so they can monitor. We truly care and will do our best to protect you but we need your help. Parents do not accept"boys will be boys". Bullying needs to be rejected by all and has to be seen as abnormal and unacceptable behavior. The people that have the most power to stop bullying are the witnesses and bystanders. "

Kids already have low self-esteem as it is, and to have someone constantly telling them they're not good enough is not okay. Every life is precious no matter who they are and we all need to stand up against bullying

I was bullied.
It is still going on and I hate to see people go through any of that.
I kept it a secret for years and I started to get really depressed.
This has been going on for three years now and I stay strong and not let it get in my way.
I have started a club at my school called, "The Next-Level-Up Club".
This club has helped me so much and I am now back to normal.

If your being bullied please say something, don't keep it a secret.
Trust me on this.
Tell some one you trust.

I care because when you watch the news and hear that a kid killed themselves due to the affect of bullying, it sad. The bystanders claim they saw nothing. Unfortunatley i guess they dont have the guts to stand up for someone. They couldve saved a life if they spoke up. Its great that marisa, michael, hayley, demi, rj, and kylie are doing something. itsbecause of them that people try to stop bullying. R.I.P every one who was bullied to death, and god bless their families.

no one should have to be bullied or outcasted just because they are different. we were'nt made to fitin. we were made to stand out. if we try too hard to fit in then we eventually fade into the background and lose a sense of who we really are. we should use our differences to become people of greatness

I've been there. I know how hard it was to wake up not wanting to get out of bed to face the world. I let the opinions of others get to me and i started to believe it myself. I struggled from an eating disorder and my self-esteem quickly shut down. i felt like i needed to be perfect to it in. I'm happy to say i have overcome that struggle in my life. I realized that you must learn to love yourself for who you are. You are here for a reason, a purpose, and no one should tell you otherwise. You must know that you are so much stronger than you think. Surround yourself with people who are positive and who love you. Just know that YOU ARE BEAUTIFUL ALWAYS !

I care because I'm going through it too, like thousands of others are around the United States, and I'm a firm believer in putting an end to it.  People need to get through their heads that bullying and harassing is WRONG.  You can ruin someone's life for absolutely no reason; the sarcasm, the name calling, the hurtful comments, the rumors and lies, they can all lead to drastic consequences, in some cases, some kids who are being bullied will choose suicide, a perminant solution to a temperary problem.  I never realized that I could be so depressed just because of a few mistakes i've made.  People take situations and make them into a bigger deal than they need to be, and half the time they'll add to the story and it won't even be true.  Same with rumors; they'll make up a complete lie about you that isn't even true, or something about you that you never even did, or never even happened. People are cruel nowadays.  I believe we can all get along, and put an end to this huge problem around the country, but it takes everyone's effort, not just a few.  It needs to stop guys, EVERYONE deserves to have a friend, and NO ONE deserves to be bullied. Everyone is beautiful, or handsome in their own way. <3
