People have different religions, so don't bully because they might be different!!
WE ALL love family
WE ALL love friends
WE ALL love being loved
WE ALL \have beliefs
So WHY do we make fun of fellow humans
Now some of yall will see this and think that I am just saying this just to use space on this blog.
But no i really want you to think, how many people in history would be an example of a bully if they where in school now? Hitler??? Most Kings and Royals!!! Even men, because isn't saying that women can't vote bullying ?? I mean come on, yall think!!! so many bullies can be famous one day, NOT because they are amazing BUT because they treated someone/lots of people poorly
DON'T BULLY !!!!!!!!!!!!!! email us @ standupagainstbullying2013@gmail.com

Treat Others As You Would Like to be Treated
Treat others as you would like to be treated. We all will stand and answer to a higher power. One of my favorites; "I'm not responsible how others treat me, but responsible how I treat others." No one should think themselves above others, we are all God's children.

Silent Victims
Written by Twinpossible on May 20, 2012
Bullying: A Poem From A Silent Victim.
5-20-2012
I call us ‘silent victims’ for two reasons.
#1. Most bully victims do not tell anybody about the painful experiences they are facing whether out of embarrassment, fear, or both. Which is very sad in looking back.
#2. Silent because nobody seems to stand up for us. At least back in my day the teachers, bus drivers, passerbyers both children and adults would see but never intervene to help me out. They kept silent. For this, I know I would never keep silent myself, and would always, without hesitation, turn to the aid of any child, adult, or victim in need.
The silent victim screams out for help in his or her heart, but rarely does anyone answer those cries. Nobody who bullies could possibly realize the toll that their words and their actions have on another human being. Not just for now, but for always. Being ‘cool’ at the stake of somebody’s life. Is it really worth it?
We need to stop the hurting and start supporting. We need to band together not pull apart and tear one another down. We are ALL human beings. We are ALL equal!
No child can help the way that they look, the voice that they have, the clothes they are bought, the glasses they must wear, the disabilities they face, the slurring of their speech, the extra pounds that they carry, (or perhaps the exact opposite), their sexual preference. Etc. etc. etc. There is no perfect person on this planet. People need to start looking into hearts instead of the external.
I wrote this poem today that likely will hit home to most bully victims, though it feels all my own when I think back on it and reflect on how being bullied changed my life, and ruined a large chunk of it. It maybe made me a more compassionate person, but what a stiff price to pay.
***********************************************
The Victim
Your stares they cut like razor blades, your words they struck me to the core,
You took away my childhood, I wasn’tShelly myself anymore.
You took away my childhood, I wasn’t
The extrovert who loved to dance, as all eyes watched me twirl and twirl,
Suddenly that person died, a lost and lonely little girl.
Suddenly that person died, a lost and lonely little girl.
Your evil chants and vicious lies, are still embedded in my brain,
At 36 I still wonder where would I be if you refrained?
At 36 I still wonder where would I be if you refrained?
More confident in who I am, less anxious when I’m in a crowd,
I swear sometimes I hear a laugh, and think that it’s still at me now.
You easily moved on through life, not thinking of the life you stole,
You likely don’t remember me, but I’m the conscience in your soul,
I hope you teach your children right, and pray they don’t turn out the same,
Your bullying still follows me, but yet to you was just a game.

*******************************************
I put a slash through my name in the above poem to personalize this to whomever is reading, though that is my original wording since obviously, I am talking about myself here. Also, because I don’t even know if I was me anymore. I don’t think I had any real identity, hence a missing name.

new poem
This poem is dedicated to Jasmine McCain, a 10 year old who committed suicide after repeatedly being bullied in Columbus NC. (Local to my neighborhood)-- My point is, no matter who they are, they have a weakness, and it would be awful to be the reason someone ended their life. I am 14, and in my school, bullying is powerful. It's ruining us. We're now segregated into groups of race, skin tone, imperfections, size etc. It has gone too far... It's a scary, cold place.. but keep your head up
Until It's Too Late
Walking through the school yard,
And sickened by what I see..
All this hatred,
But nothing that surprises me.
Innocent people hated,
Because of who they are.
They wear long sleeves,
To cover up their scars.
How could you make someone hate their selves so much,
They want to feel pain?
What this world has come to,
Is such a shame.
The Words You Say Neglect them..
But the bully doesn’t care, because
It doesn’t affect them.
They lay at night,
And they think about all the things you say..
They honestly can't go on even another day.
How do you sleep at night?
Knowing you're the reason
Someone else wants to end their life?
You're hurting them, because
Of what they look like.
All you do is laugh,
When they start to cry
No-one tries to stop them,
until it's too late.
They thought that that was the only way,
The only way to escape.
ARE YOU HAPPY NOW? NOW THAT THEY ARE GONE?!
Died for NO REASON, and did NOTHING WRONG.
You feel better now?
You wanted them to fall,
They're gone now, and it's too late because of the quiet ones who saw..
So think about it….. Yeah
Someone's life ended
Because of what you and your friends did
S T O P . Just stop… Please? S T E P. U P
Y'all think this is a game, Right ?.. Wrong. this is sad reality.

This goes out to the people who lost a friend. Who lost a cousin. Classmate or ANYONE they have met. Words hurt. and so does the blade.

Words Words
B**ch and wh**e
The girl runs away
she slams the door
she takes a knife
and cuts her skin
remembering how screwed up her life has been
she leans to the toilet
throws up to be thin
at school all she has is a grin
She cuts, cuts, cuts some more
Screaming in pain, blood on the floor
People call her emo people laugh at her face
But they haven't even tried to be in her place
Her dad just died, her mom has depression
her brother has to go through a therapy session
Why can't people see? that grin is a lie
everything's done for her, her life's slowly fading by
Bloods dripping on the floor, she's screaming in pain
she can't eat because that means more weight to gain
She wishes to be perfect she says it's not fair
she says she hears people talking about her hair
She cuts it all off, her soul has been broken
but she never told anyone, her words were never spoken
She takes the rope, hangs herself in the dark
She no longer has a beating heart
Her friends fall to the ground
when they hear the word "She's dead"
Her brother cries as he sleeps in her bed
She is gone
She is done
Just because of people. making fun.
She's buried on a Saturday,
people start crying
all because that one girl stopped trying.
so before judging someone on their weight or their clothes
their laugh their talk their hair or their nose
Just take a moment to realize and see
Everyone is not always who they seem to be.
NOW YOU WANT TO SAY,
WELL, YOUR TOO LATE NOW!!!!!!

No one likes a bully !! Hey y'all this is the 12 year old here and I'd like to say a few words.......
I have been bullied before and it is NOT cool!!! I got bullied because of my weight, because of what I eat, what outfit i have on (and whether it makes me look like a slut or not), who my parents are, were i live, and who I choose to hang out with.
There was one that I didn't include... and this one hurt the most!
When I was in Kinder I had to have surgery, i always had strep through and i was always sick. this was all because i was born 2 months early and i have a bad case of asthma. Asthma makes it REALLY hard for me to breath from time to time. So for months (and a 5 year old child) I had to get my grades up for all the days I missed. It was a lot easier than my teacher expected it to be, because both of my parents are teachers. I finally got told that I would get to graduate from kinder and I was ecstatic!! shortly after though i got told that I have to leave all my friends, transfer schools, enroll in a program that will have half of my day in English and the other half in Spanish, AND I have to be held back a year...... so for the longest time i was bullied because I was a year older than everyone!!! IT WAS SO STUPID,..........LIKE REALLY PEOPLE GET A LIFE!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Both my parents are teachers and my dad is health frantic, so everyone teased me
because, while they had gushers I had carrots, they had jello I had an orange, they had a cheese sandwich on white bread... I had an organic off brand of goldfish... I HATED it ... but that was what my life in grade school was. when I got in 5th grade I found joy in singing and playing guitar,drums, and any instrument I could get my hands on
So here I stand I am in 6th grade I will turn 14 next Dec. :(
LOL so i am 13 this Dec. .... I am 12 right now

You're Unique, Not A Freak... A Testimony By A Bully Victim
All my life I’ve been bullied, whether for my style, my hair, my religion, or my weight… It started when I moved to a different school.. in 1st grade.. I was made fun of for my individual name.. and the fact I wasn’t able to afford clothing that actually fit decently. It got worse the more I moved away from it.. in 2nd grade.. I was also bullied for my name.. but also because of my weight.. I’ve always been kinda chubby. I dealt with it though, letting the people who bullied me know I didn’t care what they thought.. but I cared so much.. I stopped eating.. I stopped going by my first name and going by my middle name. I didn’t stop this after I left in 4th grade..When I left I came to Florida away from my home in North Carolina. The school I went to actually accepted me besides some preps but it wasn’t as bad.. I left that school though.. Sadly, and I started my fifth grade year at a different school… My inspiration to live by then was music and singing.. I had attempted suicide more then 7 times.. and constantly cut my thighs..When I started school..
I had already began to be bullied.. within my first week at my new school I had already been beaten up… and in the hospital.. I couldn’t stand it… Within my year there I had already attempted suicide about 13 times… It hurt, But I felt a sense of relief… I’m almost in 9th grade now.. and I’m still being bullied for my religious views.. and my style.. Now I’m here… so far from that time and I’m called a witch.. wh*re, sl*t, ect. But I have come to accept myself.. But because of the friends I have gathered within my long time of stress and depression… And they have let me know I’m unique.. Not a freak.

TERRIFIC: Today's Tag Along Tuesday, And MY Experience
Tag Along Tuesday!!
Did you Enjoy your "Tag Along" Tuesday??
Who did you invite to tag along?
Did it make, or could you tell the person you invited to tag along happy and put a smile on their face?
Did it make you feel good and happy inside?
Did it put a smile on your face?
Even if you didn't didn't feel good, put a smile on your face, or make you feel happy inside, I am POSITIVE that it made the other person feel that way. You will also have a new friend.
My Experience of TAT...
The person I invited to tag along with me doesn't want their name to be said, they want to be anonymous, was very excited! I could really tell, She was smiling the whole entire day! At the end of the day, I gave her a hug and said that she can hang with me ANY day and tell me ANYTHING and tell me Any problem.I meant that. She will also probably be the person I will exchange numbers with on Text Me Thursday.
<<<REMEMBER!>>>

Remember,, TOMORROW IS "TAG ALONG TUESDAY"!!!
Do Something!
If someone you know is being bullied do something !! Don't be scared to do what is right! I know how you feel because I (the 12 year old) have been bullied too !!! It's is not fun and I hated it. I was scared to tell because of all the threats, and I was mad when no one else did anything to help me!!! Now I know that I should have done something, ........ but in the place and time of telling an adult I would always chicken out. And if you are being bullied do something about it, don't do what I did because then you will just be hurt more.
IF YOU OR SOMEONE YOU KNOW IS BEING BULLIED DO SOMETHING
