Just wanted to shed some little bit of light here about the topic of bullying.
Most people think that bullying comes only in forms of physical beating. That is not entirely true. People everyday are being bullied without even knowing that they are being picked on.
Take me for example.
I was never physically touched, but was (still am) picked on by people saying things that really, really hurt. This may not seem like much but it really affected me and made me really depressed for a couple of years (though I may not have shown it but I was deep down inside). It was only on till I had this some sort of emotional break down that I realized I need help, so I turned to my parents and teachers ( which I should have done so along time ago but was to ashamed, don't make the same mistake I made. It was horrible). Anyway, they dealt with the situation and told me to report to them if that ever happened again. I was so angry about what happened that I made a promise to myself that if anyone ever try to bully me (or my brothers, who were constantly told they looked like girls cause they have long hair) would face my wrath. This picking and teasing eventually dies down as I grew older but it still exists, the smart ass comment of me acting and dressing like a guy or a tom, and me not changing my looks to be like others (yes, that is a type of teasing/bullying) constantly occurs every once in a while and I hate it.
That's all for now but I want to say something to those who are in the same situation I was in. Don't just sit there and cry to yourself about it like I did. Do something about it, report them to somebody. Stand up for yourself.

This is a good message to give to people who are being bullied. I was pushed around a lot in the younger years, and it sort of died down when I got into high school (mostly because I moved from a horrid town to a really nice town) but also because I started gaining some self-worth, and nothing scares bullies more than feeling like what they're saying or doing is falling on deaf ears.
Of course, not everyone can be as lucky as I was, and for a lot of people it can be difficult to see any end to the beating and teasing. Reaching out for help doesn't make you weak, it just means that you realize that there are some things you can't do on your own, and that you're brave and strong enough to ask for help when you know you need it. It takes a lot of guts to ask for help, I still have trouble with it.
I'm glad you were able to get yourself out of the worst of it, and I hope that you continue to meet friendly people and have better days. :3

I agree, not everyone is not so lucky, but they should do something about to gain some sort of control over this nightmare. It does take a lot of guts to ask somebody for help which makes you better and braver than the bullies. My dad said that no matter how big and tough they are, they're all cowards because they pick on someone who's smaller and weaker than them.
Thanks for the blessing. I wish the same to you

I fully agree with this, fabulous message and explanation. My bullying was only a tiny bit physical, but always verbal. I had bulimia for 8 years, beleives myself to be unatractive, and beleived to never be able to do anything well in life.
Bullies should get a taste of their own medicine, even if they try to put ther problems on someone else, it simply isn't right.
beutiful picture btw, AND POWER TO TOMBOY GIRLS!! :DDDDD They're adorable dragons.

We all know the saying "Sticks and stone may break my bones, but words will never hurt me" and we all wish that were true but it is difficult to not pay attention to those mean and nasty sayings.
Part of me would say "YEAH! They should feel what's it like!" but another part of me realizes that most of these bullies we have today are/were victims themselves to bullying. But even if that were the case, that doesn't make them a better person. I kind of look down at those who were bullied and inflict their problems on others because they're not solving the problem but just spreading it to others and make things worse for themselves. But I would love to lend them a helping hand if they realize what they're doing is totally wrong and unfair and asked for it nicely
btw thanks for the comment ^^

I can't stand bullies....having fun of destroying someone else, phisicly or emotionnaly...
...the worst is: some that i know manage to take the teachers at their side,saying that they are the victims...
...i just know too much about them,being constanly their punching bag is quite painfull.
...and it hurt more when they also turn everyone against you
today, i am what we call "the antisocial guy"...it is half true...i hate being surrounded by people,but i developed this because of....well...all this bullcrap...
*sigh* well, at least,i'll end soon school,and hopefully, thing will get better
*hug you*

That's a really beautiful message to be pushing. No one deserves to be bullied and belittled no matter who they are. I myself sufferer it younger on in life, happily now, at age 26 its mostly behind me. I try to be a compassionate kitsune, and be warm and friendly.
also, all bullies can be forwarded to my belly >;3

Hehe..
Yeah..
I was bullied alot in school, because I had long hair in glasses I was called a "hippie" and because I liked rock I was called "emo." It became a regular occurence too, everyday someone would say some smart ass comment at me, then it started getting worse, literally I would have the shit beaten out of me, and some other things that I dont care to list... ((pretty close to rape))... Eventually I just, started going from depressed to mad, from mad to pissed and from pissed to homicidal. Literally started thinking about killing the fucks that were doing it to me, I took another route. I basically acted and talked like a physco, it became enough to scare them away from me.. it also scared everyone away from me. I didn't start making friends again until I was 20.. and thanks to all of this I pretty much value the life of an animal over a human being and have multiple personality disorder..
I wish it were all a made up story in my head. ;~;

I've been disgusted by bullying for as long as I can remember. It's one of life's bullying paradoxes. The way I see it, no one has, honestly, any right to sadistically, callously bully someone for being weird/different, disabled, for their skin color, not being as attractive as the next guy, not being so athletic, for their intelligence and odd behavior, for their interests, skin color, race, social class, or call them a loser when they've done or said absolutely nothing to them. In Fiction or in real life, it's something I hate with a passion.
I had a teacher in seventh grade who only helped the boys with their work and then yells at all the girls and calls us lazy and stupid.
I had a 6th grade science teacher who huemilited me in class then lied to the princeaple to get me in trouble.
It's not just the students who are abusive.

Hey, you two, guess what. You will never amount to anything. You spend so much time making other kids feel like crap that once you are outta school, you will have no life skills and be forced to live in a box under the overpass. You will then have to work for her since no one else will hire you. And you’ll be stuck with her bullying you for the rest of your lives.
