I care because I have been bullied and I told every one that I got bullied back in 2 and 3 grade. They didn't help me. l always got kicked and they told me names. I tried to tell the principal,and they always told me that she wasn't there. So, I tried to play soccer and they said that I suck because I was a girl. I told my mom that I was bullied and she took me out of that school. They accept me for who I am I. I wasn't judged by anyone. I met Ms.Rachel and she always cheered me up when I was sad.

I care because I want to tell to those who are bullying others that if they make others suffer they will not feel better than anyone else.

Nobody should EVER be put down because of who they are. Children (and adults!) should feel free to be themselves and not have to worry about what someone else is going to think or do about it. Bullying is wrong, and I know how it feels. You're going to get through this, I promise! <3

I know what it feels to be bullied and It's very tough. I'm still currently being bullied (yes adults can get bullied too). I've been bullied when I was in elementary and high school. I was once weak to accept their words but now I know that they were wrong and everything they've said and done was simply out of their insecurity. Don't feed into their words. People will take the smallest things and manipulate them. This is their way of making you believe in them. People like that makes you feel worthless and weak but the hidden truthful secret is that they're the ones with insecurities and who are very bitter. They're simply angry within themselves. These kind of people are simply taking their anger out on everyone and the reasons why they could be choosing you because they've once seen joy and happiness from within you. They see something that they want. Don't let bullies get the best of you. You won't be in their miserable surroundings for long. Let go and karma will handle. Karma is real and what they're doing to you, they'll pay for it soon. You continue to be a kind person because you are much stronger than what you know. Rise above!

Trapped
July 19, 2017
This I believe isn’t a story like others. I believe that this should be brought up because this had happened to others as well. I saw it happen, cyber bullying that is. I barely knew the kid, Brandon, but I stood up for him. Suddenly I got a dm from the bully. And this was in November 2016. It’s currently July 20, 2017. It hadn’t stopped one bit. This person, I’ve got no clue who it is, knows my name, they know my face. I have to take their hate, and it’s not pretty. See this isn’t a story where someone tells me that I’m ugly. Every time I didn’t they’d post my face on their account and write mean comments. I felt depressed, suicidal, anxious, scared, self conscious, and worst of all, trapped. I am 14 and my life has been turned upside down. I made a mistake on a public account to post selfies of me and just my face in general and there you go, that was my mistake and I’m paying for it greatly. But for one little mistake I’m being harassed online? Why? What Is the purpose to that? I speak for dozens of instagramers who have been harassed by a complete stranger! I have not heard from Brandon since March and cyber bullying isn’t just hurtful, it’s a silent killer. Please listen to my story and do something, anything Instagram! I’m fed up! This is not okay words hurt!
