Teen Bullying Is NOT Cool
As all of you are aware, bullying has gotten way out of control
and it is ruining teens' lives and they are taking their own lives. It
has to stop and we ALL have to do our part to help!
If you are one of those teens that likes to bully, please listen to me carefully. Bullying is NOT cool! No matter what you may think. You need to take a good look at yourself and search within yourself to see and understand why you do the things that you do to hurt others. Could it be that you've been hurt, bullied, or abused by somebody else? Teens who bully tend to have issues themselves such as: social problems, emotional problems, and they may be experiencing and/or have experienced mental and physical abuse. Some teens who bully have anger issues as well. There are actually a lot of things that can cause one to bully others.
It's important to be honest with yourself. Have you taken the time to think about why you bully others? I encourage you to do that. Ask yourself the question. There's a cause and effect to everything. Something is causing you to be mean and insensitive toward others. You need to search yourself, find the root-cause, and get help for yourself. Hurting others is simply NOT okay!
If you are or have been bullied, don't be afraid to speak out, get help, and stand up for yourself. You don't deserve being treated like that. You shouldn't be afraid to go to school, hang out with your friends, walk home alone, or do any other thing for that matter. You have a right to be in peace, to be yourself, and to feel safe.
As a teen, you should be enjoying your life and you shouldn't feel depressed, anxious, lonely, restless, sad, unworthy, or unloved because somebody chooses to bully you. Please talk to somebody and let somebody know what's going on. There are people who care and they will listen and help make the situation better. Please believe me! Some people REALLY do care.
Don't go through this alone. You don't have to. Please don't feel silly for reaching out for help. That's pure nonsense. You shouldn't be going through this in the first place. It's not right! Build up courage and talk about it. We have too many teens taking their own lives because they just couldn't take it anymore. I don't want that to happen to you. I want you to live your life and feel FREE! Make a vow to yourself today that you will not be bullied anymore. You will get the help that you need. Do it for yourself! Your life is worth it!
For those of you who witness bullying, please do your part to help bring an end to bullying once and for all. Here are some ways that you can help out: Let an adult or somebody who's in charge know what's going on, encourage the person that is doing the bullying to stop, talk to the person who is being bullied and encourage them to get help from somebody who can make this stop. A teacher, counselor, or any adult should be able to help. My point is this: Don't just sit back and watch this happen. Your voice is powerful. Use it.
Together we can bring about a change. There's one last thing I want you to consider: What if it was you being bullied? I'm sure you'd want somebody to take up for you if you didn't have the strength or courage to do so. Think about it! Do your part. Don't allow one more person to be bullied and you NOT do anything about it. Do what's right.
