Real Teens Speak Out

Don’t stand with the bully

it started almost 4 years ago. it started off as a couple of kids tormenting me rarely, I never thought that it would amount to what it did. I held my trust in my closest friends and they broke it, too many times. I’d like to say I’m doing better, but it still lingers in the back of my mind whenever I see them. a group of 10-12 kids who have harassed me in the past. it’s over now, mostly. a little shove in the hallways sometimes, but whatever. the worst part is, that my best friend who i thought I trusted, is also friends with those people. and she believes them, not me. not the bullied one, but she believes the bully. Don’t stand with the bully, help the victim.

I’m being bullied by my classmates every day in the school, I feel so bad. They don’t talk to me at all.

Being bullied at school choose friends wisely

So when I was in sixth grade I was bullied by two kids I will call them d and L. so when I had just started with grade i was struggling with math and social studies and I was trying to find some friends to have when I need help or that would have my back. So one day in d came up to me and asked what was wrong and I explained my struggles and he said he would be my friend and help out then it got to second semester and was bulling me calling me names and saying I had no hairline or no eyebrows called me stupid or poor so I told a teacher and I never had any problems until seventh. Stop bullying now!!!!!

Stressful

It’s stressful to be bullied. But one thing you always need to remember is never let the bully take power over you, they will try to hurt you until you break! Don’t give them what they want, give them what they need, a taste of their own medicine. I’ve been a victim of bullying and it never brought me down because the bully is always lower than you so they’re just trying to get you even lower but don’t give them what they want because they’ll take power and that gets worse! They need a reaction, something they wouldn’t expect like a smile. Never let that bully think you’re their target. Be the leader, not the follower, show everyone kindness! The point is bullying isn’t ok. Something needs to be done and it needs to be solved right. Stop the bullying, and stop it now!!!!

Choose your friends carefully

Always choose your friends wisely, be friends with people who stand up for you, understand you, and they take time with you. Those are friends you want to keep in your life. I once thought I had a true friend then I found out they were talking behind my back then when I confronted that person they denied it. So after that, I decided to choose my friends carefully and wisely. You want those friends who want to be stuck with you, who isn’t embarrassed to be around you. I once saw someone being bullied and I stepped in and became that person’s friend. I also told the bully to leave that person because they’re just looking for attention, don’t be a bystander, be a helper and a friend. Show others your kindness and how you want to make a difference. Stop the bullying!

Experience

Never let a bully try taking power over you, bossing you around, and put you down. They are called attention seekers, they want to bully others so other people will do it too! Never be a bully and if you’re a victim let a trustworthy responsible adult know immediately. That’s exactly what I did. You should tell someone you trust, talk about it with someone otherwise you’ll be stressed and afraid. It feels good to talk about it. Don’t ever let a bully bring you down. They’re just trying to bring you lower than them so you’ll feel worthless and stuff like that. Stop bullying!!!

foster care

so, when i was about 12 i was in foster care and people used to make fun of me because i didn’t have my parents like they did so they said that i was not worth anything because my parents were not there they said my parents didn’t want me that why they gave me away and i know that was not the story so i took and i went to a trusted adult and told them what was going on and they talked to the student. That didn’t work so my friends started standing up for me and then people left me alone finally. You can do the same don’t let someone put you down.

every day i guess

so I guess it’s kind of my everyday life, but some of my “friends” will call me names and stuff they know I don’t like, and I will hear people talk behind my back a lot. I get called an “attention seeker” because it’s hard for me to keep things I do to myself when I feel guilty about it. some girls also harass me at lunch and have all year and to be honest it is hurting me.

everyday life basically :/

so basically, a lot of girls in my school would treat me bad and make fun of me. they would abandon me in activities and make fun of my actions. however, they keep copying what i wear and what I do. they also stare at me at a distance. there are many guys whom also bully me for no reasons at all. they would make fun of me.

Being bullied in English class by people whom I thought appreciated me

These two girls who were my so called besties would constantly make fun of me and my actions. I always tried to help them, but rather listening to my advice and being thankful. They would talk down to me and make me feel insecure and helpless.
