They say bullying never can get to you  but if your a person like me bullying can get to you.  I've been bullied ALOT.  The saying, "sticks and stones may break my bones but words never hurt".  Well it's 100% wrong.  Words can get to you and make you eventually think what people are saying about you are true. Also, it leads to many unforgettalbe and lifetime decisions that you would never regret.  I've pretty much been called every word you can think of.  When I get bullied on i never speak up but hopfully overcome that and defend myself, but always when I did I always got in trouble for saying what I fell is right to say.  There are many people like me, Trust me I know I see it happening to not only me, but millons of other kids a day.  Lets all put a stop to it and stop bullying. It can start with just ONE PERSON saying ONE BOLD COMMENT. LETS ALL GET TOGETHER AND STOP BULLYYING

I see so many kids being bullied, I was bullied at a time, and am very succesful now.  I want people to know that it will get better.  People say it all the time but it's true.  I believe that bullying can and will be able to stop some day.  With everyone working together we can spread this message.  Stay Strong!

I'm bullied because of who I am. Kids at my school make fun of me for dressing too nicely. I get called the "rich girl" and snob for what my parents dress me in, and my home, and my father's occupation. It has gotten really bad, I even got beaten up by a couple of boys. I contacted my school, and they didnt believe me and told me to move. I am still bullied on a day to day basis, but I applied for a different school. I hope I get in! "Sticks and stones can brake your bones but words can break your soul.'' XXOO BE STRONG

Bullying only just recently entered my life. I had so many friends, i was so happy and thrilled each day to go to school but now, now everything is black. It's almost as if life's playing a cruel game with me. I was forced to move away, to go to a school where there was on one of my own race. I was forced to face reality and leave my friends behind just because of parent's losing their job. Now, I'm scared, everyday, to go to school, to smile, scared to even look anyone in the eye. Everything I do seems to set off some alarm that makes the kids at school hate me. And that's why I've been considering suicide lately, how easy it would be to take my life before anyone else does and to finally be in peace while watching over my important people and right now the thing i'm most scared of right now, is Them. I'm scared to go back to school after break. Will they drench me again? I mean, it's winter now. Will they hit me again? Will I cry? 
The only thing i pride in is that my bullies never know of my fear, they've never seen me cry, never- instead, after each insult, hit and a cruel 'joke' i give them a smile but that's why i cry each night, to relieve me of my distress. i wish, no, i PRAY that this will be over soon, that i'll be normal. Please God and anyone who can help me, Please End Bullying.
Tear it aart, Burn it, Shoot it, do whatever- just, end it please.

I care because, it hurts i know. It isnt just about getting abused or anythings. Words have alot to do with it. If every school had a teen against bullying program many teens wouldnt be afraid to go to school. Everyday at least 17 teenagers take theirs lives trying to cope with bullying. Bullying with words or actions can cause cutting, burning, over eating, depression, insanity, and death. This is a serious cause that needs to be known.  Whether you like or accept it JUDGING IS BULLYING. Yes sounds crazy right? But it is true, and most people do it. I was bullied since i was 5 years old. it feels awful.  It doesnt solve anything. The only reason people do it is because "it makes them feel better about themselves.  Some teens and kids are to afraid to stand up for themselves and that is why i talk to many of them and confront the people that do it. I had no self-confidence or pride until i was 13 years of age. Ive been working on this act against bullying for two years. And the bullying rate has actually gone up! I used to beat myself up telling myself everyone is right;that i was fat and i was ugly, and i wasnt smart enough to do anything. I knew it wasnt true but i told myself "well hey maybe if i told them they were right they would stop doing it". I was wrong it got worse i started burning myself with hot metal trying to feel some sort of feeling,I realize that was wrong.

Because I've seen bullying and not spoken up. My school is having a day of silence for anti-bullying. Lets stop it here. It starts with just one bold statement!!!!1

One time my life was even at stake. I dont want anyone to go through what i went through. We need to try the best we can to END BULLYING!((: loovvee yall and be strong!!

Brianna - 15 - Arkansas

i care because, i have been bullied, its not good what so ever, it makes you feel like you are not wanted, but it's best to speak to someone, because i never, i am a young carer in my family, that's why i didn't have many friends because i never really went out, the girls that bullied me where not nice at all, i have now dropped out of school at the age of 14.. and i do regret it because i can't do much in life, and if your getting bullied you need to believe in your self and ask people for help, because there are so many people out there that will sit down an listen, and they will take action:). i am 1000% against bullying:)

I am a teacher and I want my students to feel safe and comfortable at school.  No one has the right to intentionally make someone else feel bad.  I want my students to know that they are ALL special, worthy people who have a lot to offer the world!

I care cause my confidence has been shaken alot because of bullying.  I used to be confident but ever since people noticed i have the tendancy to stutter my confidence has gone down.  Now that i'm in 7th grade i'm in counseling and speech.  both the school counselor and the speech therapist are very nice but i felt like im not normal.  I hear Demi reach out for bullying and Demi, incase you ever read this i just wanted to tell you that you inspire me so much.  We've both been through alot and when i hear your songs it makes me feel spontaneous.  I want people to see the real me and like me for who i am.  We dont have to act a certain way for people to like us. All we have to do is be ourselves.  I truly think that says alot about ourselves.  Alot of my family is in to acting and my cousin even got the lead in the highschool play but i always find myself saying "I will never be like her!" Even though people say that were both pretty talented, I just dont believe them. Im bullying my self and thats something about me I need to change.  I AM 100% against bullying!

I've never been badly bullied, but I am/have been picked on. I was teased a little by a few people 2 years ago. Now this year, it's gotten worse. I don't say anything, but my friend gets it. He will tell them to stop, and others tell me to ignore it. But it's hard. This week was extremely bad. I got called alot of names, in the class, where everyone could hear. They stuck up for me though, and I care because if people don't have others that will stick up for them, it's really hard. When I was being picked on 2 years ago, nobody stood up for me, it can make people feel so alone. So, that's why I care.

I care because now adays many people are bullied,. And once they are bullied, they'll loose their trust in theirselves.They won't have any self confidence at all. It's like they're in a jail and can't get out because if they will they're scared about what people thinks about them. So they prefer being alone and stuff but no one deserves to be alone. We are here to protect each other or accompany each other not to bully if they're simply different among everyone. We are all equal, we're all humans. They should not treat a person which is different. They will never feel good if they are bullied. SO STOP BULLYING.

I very very care, because it's not useful . I hope there's no bullying in this world :)

@RetnoLovato - 13 - Indonesia

I hate bullying ! Just because someone is slightly different doesn't mean that they are wrong for being this way. People need to understand how serious bullying can be and how much it can affect people lives. I get bullied for many different reason and now i hate school, i hate going out anywhere and it makes me think that its my fault. My school seem to try there best but it never seems to stop it in fact it seems to make more peple start! But If We All Come Together And Make A Stand We Can Finally Put A Once And For All End To Bullying!

If people take the time to read all the comments on this site, you can see that you're not alone. A lot of people have been bullied, and if we all just come together and make a stand against it, then maybe we can finally put an end to bullying.

I know what it feels like to be bullied. It is not a good feeling. When you go home after school, you should feel happy and proud that you had a good day, not go home and cry into your pillow because you were bullied. If you feel pressured, sad, alone, or bullied you should always go and tell an adult right away. or just walk away from the bully and ignore them. It is hard to stand up to a bully or to stand up to someone who is being bullied. But once you learn how to stand up for yourself you won't be able to let anyone stand in the way of you. I say that we put an end to bullying. Who's with me? I want everyone to feel good about themselves because I care.

i have never been bullied but i guess i know how horrible it may feel, i've seen a lot of people being bullied and i just feel bad because i can't stop it. i don't know how, but i just want bullying to stop, it makes kids and teens feel horrible about theirselves and we all have to be proud of ourselves, no matter what they say, so please make it STOP

I know how it actually feels. when i was in my elementary, my classmates had stepped my personality and never having any support from anybody was the painful part.
