__** Bullying on your Appearance **__ Everybody knows that when you look at someone, you judge them by what they look like. No matter what it is, you always judge them by what their physical appearance is. We all have a different appearance. We all look different, so what’s the point on judging each other? Honestly, I forget what people say about me. I am who I am, and you all are who you are, so be that person. Stop trying to impress other people, because nobody’s perfect. No matter how hard you try, you will never be able to impress everyone; you will never be able to be like anybody else. So be yourself, because we all have different personalities, different taste of clothing, and different looks. I was reading an article and this kid was getting bullied because of he was overweight. At that school, they were also exampling kids getting bullied because of their race, looks, or even how much money their family has. Some kids are overweight & others aren’t. No matter what we look like we are human beings. We all are people, and we all should respect each other. I witness every day at school somebody getting judged by somebody else. They may not try to hurt them, but people usually judge someone by their appearance. The reason this happens most times is because that’s the first thing you see, the first thing you know about that person. "Two steps forward and one step back" is a quote that really describes girls friendships. Usually you build a strong friendship by taking two steps forward and becoming close friends. Then, usually you talk about them, and take a step back by growing apart.

In early November, the whole eighth grade went to see a movie //The Bully Project//. Honestly, it was a huge impact on me, I saw what kids go through. I felt like I was in the person’s shoes. I think if that was presented in schools, kids would actually put themselves in someone elses shoes. Bullying is not right. Two of the kids in the movie committed suicide. It’s putting kids in pain where they don’t even want to be alive anymore, no body should be in that situation. Bullying is unfair, no matter what people say. You were not put in this world to force somebody out. When you bully, that is what you are doing, you are making someone else feel unwanted, forcing them to commit suicide. You are forcing somebody to feel this way, and pretty much forcing them out of life. This is a serious matter that can be stopped. Recently, I have stopped it myself. These sixth graders were outside of school before school had started, they were bullying a kid with mental disabilities. I told them to stop, I speaking to them, they started to respond with, “shut up!” “You don’t know what your talking about.” That’s what some bullies might do. If you talk to the bullies and they keep doing it, find an adult. Keep fighting for kids that get bullied until the bullying stops. You never know you you’re helping. Kids get bullied every day.
