"DON’T BE MEAN BEHIND THE SCREEN"
We've been thinking about what we could do as a community to stop bullying. And maybe even stand up to the bullies. But we think about what we could do to help fight CYBER BULLYING.
Bullying and Cyber bullying can lead to a variety of outcomes, including depression, su***de, cutting, drugs, alcohol, and smoking. As a result, someone dies or becomes gravely ill. Many people feel alone or as if they don't belong in this world because they believe everyone despises them. They believe that hurting themselves is the solution when it is not. Everyone should understand that hurting yourself is NEVER the solution.
Victims must learn to stand up for themselves and not be afraid of doing so. Do something, whether it's telling on them or saying something to an adult. Don't allow yourself to keep listening to things that aren't true about you. Rather than allowing yourself to be hurt, don't be afraid to advocate for yourself.
When everything is getting too much for you, you could also try counseling to see if that helps, but whatever you do, don't let the bully continue to abuse you. If you see someone being bullied, don't let them get away with it. Say something and do something about it
