I Care Because
Don't give up! The awful things people say about you and do to you, you don't deserve any of those things and I'm sorry it is happening to you, but don't give up you are worth so much more. You are beautiful, smart, talented, and ton of other awesome things! :)

There is never an excuse to bully a disabled student. They have their own gifts to offer the world and have similar talents as would anyone else. I had a disability and was often called the "r" word and I'd like to see schools stop using that word and have parents explain to their children that the word is hurtful-period.

My friends have been bullied and I have stud up for them. I want bulling to end at my school. But most people that bully were bullied at young ages and think that everyone needs to to feel that way

I have seen the things that people who have been bullied have to endure, and it is not okay. No one should feel alone or not safe, wherever they are, whether that is at school or at home. I have friends who have been bullied/bullies, and I have been bullied myself. It is not an enjoyable experience, and nobody should have to go through it.

I heard about a kid who committed suicide because he was bullied so bad. Made me feel awful.

My son was bullied to the point where this other child broke his hand last year. He cried every time he went to school or came home from school. We need to teach our children to embrace diversity and individuality. Parents-you are the role models - teach your children well!

I have been bullied in the past- and even though it wasn't as bad then what others went through, IT SUCKS! I care about each and everyone one of you. No one deserves to get bullied. I hope you all have a wonderful day! Always remember: you will get through it! Currently my best friends are the ones who bullied me in the past. I love each and everyone of you💜💜. I'm praying that it gets better, Because IT WILL
