THIS IS HORRIBLE!!! Do you see why I said that bullying is dangerous. This girl was a child, just like me. This girl had feelings, just like me. This girl was being bullied, just like me. Her mother complained, just like mine. The school didn't do a whole lot, just like mine. The only difference is I am writing this blog and this girl hanged herself. To those of you being bullied, you cannot let it go this far, please remember that you are better and stronger than this and you do not have to end your life because someone else is unhappy with themselves.

Effects of bullying

Hi Readers,

Being bullied can effect our self-esteem, it can make you sad and depressed, try to live through it. I know how you feel, I have been there, I am still there; but eventually you will get your revenge. My advice would be to tell an adult that you feel comfortable with, an adult that will attempt to do something about it. If they threaten you for telling, ignore them and make sure that an adult knows what is going on. When you react to bullies, it lets them know that what they are doing is hurting you, and it makes them want to keep doing it. It makes them happy. Don't make them happy, they are not making you happy!
