Students Take On Cyberbullying (8 min)
When Facing History teachers Jamie Lott and Mary Sok asked their World Cultures class about bullying at their school, the class described the hallways as safe. But after listening to a presentation given by hate crimes task force officer Dave D'Amico, they started a discussion about the widespread problem of online bullying, and how they as a class could take the first steps toward preventing it.

For many years I have been
For many years I have been bullied. I hated the feeling. I've made a goal in my lifetime since then. To start a group call A.B.A for anti-bullying association. I've hated feeling miserable everyday of my life. Feeling worthless. I have trouble at home, also. It will never get better. I vowed to help all in trouble. So they will never feel the way I felt. Cyberbulling is horrid and immature. I'm only 16 and I can't help much. But 1word 1second 1person 1life is saved. People can go throughout their lives not realizing that bullying is serious. until it happens to them..
why do they (mean thats all)
my point is why do they pick on others i got picked on the 1st day of school
dont let them get to you stad up and start telling someone you know
i told everyone who i thought will help me
STAT TELLIN WHO U TRUST

bully
im writing a essay about bullying this page really helped STOP BULLYING NOW>!
To anyone bullied out there
never fight fire with fire. That's dumb logic. Never suck up to bullies either. That's worse. So what can you do?
Some say go with the flow until high school ends.
I say just speak up and let them hear you out. I think if you were to make them feel pity, then they would eventually stop.
I've never been bullied (only by my damn brother or sister), and there aren't bullies really at my school. So i dont know how hard this may be. But i do know that it hurts a lot to be called different or something. Im a very short girl. People don't say it directly but its just the little things like "can you get me that book, Oh nvm, your too short" or "your tiny for a 10th grader!" Yeah, not as bad, but you know, it still hurts a bit. Sometimes i laugh it off, and that's why it doesn't become so serious. Well i look on the bright side (:
Being short is awesome! I can pretend im a child and get discounts on all you can eat (;
I just stumbled on this website because im doing a report of cyberbullying.
that ment a lot to me thank
that ment a lot to me thank you and other people should read stop and think "i should stop bullying the kids i bully" that would be the smart choyse
Bullying
When I got into middle school I wasn't really payed much attention. No one talked to me and even now no one really talks to except to say mean words. Bullying isn't nice and should be stopped. Bullies should know that it does affect other peoples lives.

D:
No need to pay attention to them. You're strong. They're the weak minded ones to take part in such actions. be proud of who you are. They're sadly immature. D:
I was bullied from K-6th
I was bullied from K-6th grade so i think i know how to help.
1. Ignore them. they might stop if they know it doesnt bother you
2. tell a teacher. It might seem lame, but it helps.
3. tell a parent. again, it might be lame but it helps
thats all i got. if they start to physicly harm you, tell a teacher right away.
Racism
People all over the world have to deal with racism, not just you. I used to have that a lot, but I kept on going. Know that you're not alone. Find kids like you, or just keep being friendly and prove them all wrong.
Everyone can be important. You? You are exceptional.
@Anonymous
Well, if someone's being racist, it's hard to just ignore it and get on with your lives. Maybe just a firm, "Please stop. You do not know what I go through everyday, and I'm sick of being called on. It hurts me you know? Do you feel better when you make fun of me? Do you feel better when you know that I am the only one that's not accepted? Go on, tease me, remark me if that makes YOU feel better. But if you're a human, then just stop." Try not to blame them or they'll just be angry. I think pity helps you, not fire with fire. But whatever you do. DO NOT EVER SUCK UP TO THEM.
i agree maybe people should
i agree maybe people should watch wat they say to people that could hurt there feelings
BULLING
That is so true dont listen to what bullies tell you. I dont pepole juge me cuz am what they call "EMO" I used to be bullied until I stud up 4 myself and said no more. Everybody thinks am weird but i dont care this is me. If they dont like it well IDGAF so they need to get over it. :D
Don't Worry About Them ... They Are Nobodys!
You find where you belong. If you have one friend or no friends it DOESN'T MATTER! Do not let them get to you, don't let them make you feel that way because at the end of the day they're gonna do what they want anyway. Your living for yourself not them so don't worry about them. They are nobodies and if they need to hurt someone else's feelings to make themselves feel better then they're the ones with the problem not you.
Hey its ok I know how you
Hey its ok I know how you feel, and you're not the only one going through this. I would suggest, that you talk to an adult (parents/teachers). Do not ever change who you are, because you're special, no matter whatever people tell you.
re.
Dear anonymous, just ignore them and let haters hate.And if they keep bothering you tell a trusted adult like a teacher or counselor, they'll understand.
dont worrie
keep your head up high. you dont need people to like you just be you and no one else. just look at them and roll it off your sholders. they are not worth it. just remember that there are people out there that love you very much.. i dont know you but i do. also remember that carma will come back to them people and what ever they get they will deserve.
This video is awesome not
This video is awesome not only it teaches u to help stop bullying but also it shows how much u are a friend to ur friend and I would look for help for my friend that is being cyber bullied but I will stand up for anybody else and her no matter wat any problem we should have the strength to tell someone your problem even though it wouldn't be easy at all
CYBERBULLYING
IT'S BAD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

This Stuff Is SERIOUS!!
One time there was this boy named Roger Valascuez and everyone miss treated him and picked on him and had nothinfg else better to do. i went to him at the lunch table and said that everything would be okay because i was here for him and to be strong. He had to me very SHOCKING news, this news wasnt good at all in my point of view. He told me that he didnt Want to be in this world anymore and that he had no purpose what so ever. I told him he had WAY to much to strive for in life than committing suicide. On top of ALL his bullying and everything he was having extremely bad famliy problems at home. His mother and Father got divorced and they blammed it all on him and all he ever did was love his parents unconditionally. To this day he is alive and well but no longer lives with either one of his parents and he is in foster care and DOES have apurpose in life. He is a go getter for art and is looking foward to getting a scholar ship. (:
True story
When I was in 7th grade I was bullied so bad for no aparent reason, And I had a lot of fake friends. I told them everything about me, because i trusted them. After a while they made a fake account on facebook about me saying that im a lesbo. And sandly everyone actually belived them. When i went to school the next day, i lost all my confidence , my power, my everything. I went home everday to my room and just cry for the rest of the day. I felt like I had no reason to be in this worl they made me feel like im useless. And obviolsy my friends belived them..And i was left with noone in the world but me and my depression. My parents are striked and my brothers are really mean to me and that made it even worse for me. Going through all that when i'm only 14 is very painful I should have a better life than this
i like your story its rreally heart warming

You should go to school and
You should go to school and talk to a teacher or your parents and tell them how you feel. Ask those kids that bully you how you would feel if you did that mean stuff to them.
@ you
well, that's serious stuff. If someone is pushing you around and cutting your hair, be firm, don't back down. Don't let them push you around because that just reminds them that THEY won. get some of your friends or anyone else you know who has the same probs as you if you dont feel comfortable by yourself.
Bullies
Bullies are wrong and only mess with other people because they are not intelligent enough to think of something productive to do with themselves instead of torturing other people.
Here to listen
I have been a bullied on and offline so many times through out my life. It is never easy either way it goes nor where is comes from. I was one of the lucky kids was worked through to problems and never let it get to me until I hit high school. I started cutting, feeling worthless, stopped eating, and lost everything I knew about myself. I am 22 and I just stopped cutting a little over a year ago. The only reason I stopped was because I became pregnant. Parts of my family does it openly now and it makes it even worse, however, my son keeps me strong and pushing on. I know not everyone has this but I am not a support group nor anything like that. I am just a normal person who is amazing at helping people no matter what the problem is. You can look me up on facebook and send me a message. I am a normal girl with the will and gift of wanting to help people as a friend not a psychotrist.
im srry your not alone :(
im sorry your not alone :(
you
People who complain about bullying need to learn that you need to stand up for yourself. And it especially iritates me when cyber bullying becomes an issue. Just dont look at the messages. simple as that.
Bullying only continues if you let it. most of the time if you just stand up for yourself instead of let yourself be bullied, the bully will "most of the time" gain respect for you and the issue will stop. Just stand up for yourself.
People in the world have been so de sensitzed, that they dont know how to deal with things in the world.
Learn to deal with your emotions, and stop cutting yourself.
You have a very good point
You have a very good point about that i mean if you cut you'll only get made fun of more for cutting.
notthat simple man, if u dont
notthat simple man, if u dont see it someone is bound and determined to tell you about it
When people bully others and
When people bully others and they do stick up for their selfs. I got bullied and I stuck up for my self but it still got to me really bad! Bullying continues no matter what. You can't stop it. So since I got bullied does it mean I didn't stick up for myself? Does it mean it won't continue? Guess what? I did stick up for my self and it still continued even after I ignored it! Nobody can stop it. Only the bully can!
I get bullied all the time
I get bullied all the time for being bi!!
someone who cares and knows how you feel
People around the world are very rude and cold hearted. Sometimes you have to dust it off your shoulders and let people talk. It may hurt your feelings and you may want to beat they asses but you have to be the bigger person in the situation. People cant judge everyone for what they choose to do in their life at the end of the day you are the one who has to deal with your sexuality and god, so dont let anyone bring you down. Stand tall and have a great life do not let anyone bully you to the point you want to hurt yourself, trust me i know what your going through.
That was very touching!!:)
That was very touching!!:)
Prevention or Ignorance is
Prevention or Ignorance is not really the problem for this issue. We cannot expect anybody, kid, teenager, or mature to just disregard harassment or physical violence taken against all of them. Specially in this very day and also the technological age group. When somebody's lies as well as slander against somebody goes viral it really is extremely difficult to prevent this. Not only does this impacts a person in our however can affect their own future.
"im sorry madison.. i cant do
"im sorry madison.. i cant do this anymore. ive been trying to find things to distract me. but. things are getting to me.. and... i just want to be dead.. gone.. forever... bye.." one of my freinds sent me that last night after we had been talking. She has been cyberbullied on Facebook countless times. DONT EVER LET A HATER GET INSIDE YOUR HEAD! You are better than they are. Anyone who spends there time talking bad about someone is not worth paying attention. Just ignore what they say no matter how bad or mean it is!
