2. WHAT IS BULLYING
Bullying is one-sided, intentional, and repeated.
Bullying is when someone purposely hurts, frightens, or threatens
someone else.
Bullying is when someone purposely leaves out, ridicules, spreads
rumors, or makes offensive comments to someone else.
4. BULLY FREE SCHOOLS
A lot of schools have anti-
bullying campaigns. The students
say that having a box to put their
complaints in is a good thing for
them . They don’t have to feel
embarrassed going up to a
teacher . They don’t feel like they
are tattling.
6. CYBER BULLYING
Cyber bullying can happen 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, and reach a
kid even when he or she is alone. It can happen any time of the day or
night.
Cyber bullying messages and images can be posted anonymously and
distributed quickly to a very wide audience. It can be difficult and
sometimes impossible to trace the source.
Deleting inappropriate or harassing messages, texts, and pictures is
extremely difficult after they have been posted or sent.

8. MY STORY
When I was in 7th grade I was picked on all the time. I was the
typical nerd, I had glasses, braces, the works. Also, I was heavier then
most of the girls so they would pick on me to no end. The bullying
mostly happened when I was in P.E. and when the teachers back was
turned. I would get hit with rocks, balls, just anything they could find.
I was the one who sat in the “F corner” in math class. I hardly had
any friends.
9. MY STORY
One day I just finally had enough of everybody Bullying me. So I
threatened to bring a gun to school. When I talked to someone they told
me I was a victim turned bully. I got kicked out of middle school and
went to a school for troubled kids half way through 8th grade. My mother
removed me from that school and I was put on home schooling. I went
down into a deep dark depression and stared cutting. First it started with
my knuckles then my legs. I stopped in the middle of freshman year. My
friend, Luckie took it away from me and said “no more”.
10. MY STORY
I know first hand how a bully can
affect a victim. In middle school is
where it started for me.
