I Care Because…

 
  • I care because it's not fair to be ostracized and made fun of because of something that you can't control. I care because people should have to feel sad or alone because of something they can't control. I care because nobody should feel sad because of somebody's words toward them. I care because it's not fair to live your life in sadness because of somebody. I care because nobody should ever have to feel like they shouldn't be here because of another person.

  • I care about stopping bullying because I have seen what it does to people. Bullying can lead to the extreme as we have seen in recent weeks and really sheds a light on caring for those who have been affected by bullying. It is an epidemic and continues to harm adolescents and teens and is even worse now that having profiles online and having an online presence serves as a target for bullying. This will not stop on its own and I personally think that schools need to do a better job of making sure that those who bully are punished and followed up on to ensure that the bullying has halted.

  • Teens against bullying is an important cause because bullying can have lasting emotional and psychological effects on individuals. As a teen, I care because everyone deserves to feel safe and respected, regardless of their background, appearance, or beliefs.

  • i know what it is like to be bully, sometimes I did want to fight but I kept my composure and be the bigger person. I have the mindset that people who pick and target someone undersize or think they won't retaliate is immature and have insecurities of their own. Over bullying is a terrible thing and the schools should step in and stop these immature behaviors ASAP.
