I Care Because…

I care because my best friend was bullied from second to fifth grade, and I see the pain it caused to her. She thinks negatively about herself, when really she is a nice, positive person! My mom was also bullied, and she still remembers all the bad things she was referenced to. Bullying causes life-lasting damage to the victim, and no one should have to go through it. That is why I care.

i am a middle school student and it is already hard to keep a good mental health state even without bullying and i couldn't imagine what it would but like with it i don't think anyone deserve anything like that.

Because I can imagine it, even if I haven't gone through it. Because I've seen the self inflicted actions of others who don't get support, who lack that. Because I have to watch those around me shed their tears yet myself alone won't do much. I want to come together with others, build off with others even with those still suffering, still hurting. Most never needed the abuse, the trauma, or anything of the sort they got from those unfortunate experiences.
We must take action, we must advocate not just for ourselves, but for the sake of others as well.

I care about this situation because bullying is the most disgusting behavior that you could do at school. Bullying someone could cause damage to their life like trauma. Bullying could cause depression and things that are much more worst.

I care because some people may be depressed and should seek help fast.

I care because I am a teacher at a middle school and I have seen bullying among my students many times. I want a positive school climate so I will do everything I can do stop bullying. My younger cousin has a learning disability and a speech issue. When he was in middle school and high school he was mercilessly bullied by older students. When he would walk by they would make fun of his voice. It got so bad that he broke down and almost quit going to school when he was a junior in high school. My cousin is the nicest person I know and was never mean to anyone else. He didn't deserve the abuse that he received and I want to make sure that none of the students at my school have to go through what he went through.

I care because I was a victim of cyber bullying. The person hurt my feelings and made me feel sad. So I care so other people don’t get their feelings hurt like I did.

I care about this issue because I know the damage it can casue and I have seen first hand what it does. This is a very serious problem and if we don't do anything it will never get better. I care because I know that people are getting hurt and some other person is just having fun with it which is very sad. If we can make a change it will help a lot of people.

I care because the world needs more empathy

bullying comes from a place of insecurity, that's what most people seem to think (even bullies themself). but really, a better choice for you and the person who is targeted is to just work on yourself and those insecurities. that way, nobody gets hurt, everyone has an easier time. insecurities lead to projection onto others, but really think about it, would it make you proud of yourself a few years in the future? would you look back and be able to say that you made the best choices you possibly could at the time? was it really worth it? of course we all make mistakes and say things that could hurt people (unintentionally or purposefully), but we learn from those mistakes. bullying brings your mistakes onto someone else's life, and they have to deal with the baggage. don't. bully.
