Bullying: What do you do when you are bullied?
|
When I was bullied in school I use to cry and when I got tired of it...I stood up for myself. I finally told them that I didn't care what they thought. If you are ever bullied, you need to stand up for yourself and let them know that your feelings and your life matters.
