You have a fire under your feet and nobody can put out those flames.

Bullies always get away with doing wrong because most of the time they never get caught.

To be honest, teachers just don’t understand bullying hurts. They don’t want to know, and they care less about kids’ feelings, we have feelings too. Our feelings matter, but overall, they just don’t care.

I was being drilled again, for something someone did to me. I followed the rules, told the teacher, and once again—I still got punished for it. How and why did I get in trouble? Wow—what sense does that make? None. None what so ever. Once again, I was being bullied and it was ignored.

When I was being bullied and called names for years, you all didn’t care. Now all of a sudden I am taking up for myself, it is a problem.

We have to keep standing up for ourselves and make a difference. Every voice needs to be heard.

I was fragile, buried in broken dreams, and felt hopeless because of what my classmates said and did to me… No, it is not fair, not at all. Nearly every single day, elementary school has been a challenge. I have many wishes that I would love to come true but one wish I would like to be granted is for teachers to understand bullying hurts.

Why don’t you ever ask me what happened, first? You always ask the people who hurt other people what happened first, as if I am going to tell a fib.

No, I am not apologizing. He needs to apologize to me. He called me names all day and pushed me. It is funny how it went unnoticed, but you want to punish me, the good guy. When I defend myself, then you want to look?
