Real Kids Speak Out

When I was in fourth grade I was a bully. I hate myself for it I really do. I reduced this one kid to tears almost everyday. She ended up forgiving me and now we’re best buds. I was a bully cause I was going through some tough times at home. I know that’s not an excuse. I hate that I was a bully, sometimes I feel like I don’t deserve to live cause I was a bully . I don’t think I deserve to be happy, why should I deserve to smile when I made someone’s life a living hell.Some people tell me that I changed and I should forgive myself but, I still can’t help hating my self. Being a bully was probably the worst experience in my life. I was an idiot when I was younger.

Bullies are not cool

I was a bully but I didn’t know it and it was the worst thing I ever did in my life and I was a terrible person for doing it and it will never happen again.

I get bullied when other girls do something wrong and say I did it. They do this many times and the teacher starts to dislike me. The ringleader is the teacher’s favourite student. Once, I was called to the principal’s office
because the ringleader wrote something really bad on the wall about herself and said I did it. The principal
believed her. I told my parents and they said to stay away from them. They go up behind me and whisper really
loud that ” Jane is so stupid.” and other things. That’s why I found this website. I haven’t solved my problems yet.

I am being bullied

iI am being bullyed and my friends are too. I cant deal with it.We can put a stop to bullying in my school, so if your being bullied, it is not your fault your perfect the way you are.

“No Match for Me” by Aditi Iyer

Aditi Iyer is a ten year old gifted singer from Delhi, India who is shaping up to be a crossover artiste doing western contemporary and classical songs.

‘No Match For Me’ is a very important song for her as an original recording artiste because despite being only ten, she has also faced the numerous odds that kids face when people (in her case kids from her previous school) are unkind, rude and tease you over things that can make one feel ill at ease. Aditi took her own sweet time to face her struggles and with the help of her mother’s guidance became stronger and now can face anybody as ‘no bully is any match for her inner strength’.

In her words, ‘every child or an adult can be and should be assertive as each person is unique and can stand up for herself / himself. If I can do it, anybody can.’

Aditi is truly grateful to April Knoll and Fred E Jam for believing and choosing her to sing their song.

The 1 person

I was bullied for my weight from 3’rd grade but then the bullies cousin was the one person who stood up for me, everyione else wathced…

Bully

The new kid loved flowers and still does. That is a good thing.
The end.

owls

I have always loved owls but…
I get bullied for liking them because kids at work think they are horrible.

It’s a battle, really.

When I was really young, about 5 or 6 I was so much smaller and just overall skinner and shorter than everyone. Nobody said anything. But a few years later I weighed more. I was over weight. From 3rd grade, and still going on now, people have made fun.

It’s never a fun feeling and it overall makes you feel bad. People who say unkind things don’t care about the outcome in the victims life. People say mean stuff, and go online.

I know that anyone who goes through this won’t listen to the whole "it gets better" story. But it does.

I wish I could do more about this. I hate seeing people hurt. I hate that people think there’s no point. Everyone deserves to be happy. No matter what.

Be a buddy, not a b-b-b-b-bully
Be a buddy, not a b-b-b-b-bully
Be a buddy, not a b-b-b-b-bully
Not a b-b-b-b-bully, not a b-b-b-b-bully

*It’s like a jungle sometimes, it makes me wonder how to keep from going under
It’s like a jungle sometimes, it makes me wonder how to keep from going under*

I said I’m tired of being bullied, every single day
Every corner that I turn there’s a bully to pay
I need a break, quick, break and pause, need to be fixed
Take a step outside my house and I’m caught in the mix
When will it end, the bullying, the teasing?
Picking on the kid you don’t even got a reason
They say they better than us, the lies the lies
Well why don’t they try somebody their own size?
Laughing at us, thinking it’s funny
Picking on kids in school for lunch money
That ain’t the way it’s supposed to be
How can one little fist separate you and me?

**Can’t nobody take my pride, can’t nobody hold me down, oh no, I gotta keep it moving**

New school or old school, we gotta change, rearrange, use our brains to study the chains
They can’t hold me down cuz I’m book smart
For haters who got no love like a broke heart
Never easily broken, y’all are Pop Tarts
Only thing I bully is rappers on hip-hop charts
Lyrically, I’m a miracle to the game, cuz when hip-hop die, his last words are my name, check it
I’ll be resurrected then every second I’ll kick it
I’ll be busting records and getting rid of the wicked
Gotta make, the change, like a dollar bill, sometimes I wonder, why they try to keep me under

Be a buddy, not a b-b-b-b-bully
Be a buddy, not a b-b-b-b-bully
Be a buddy, not a b-b-b-b-bully
Not a b-b-b-b-bully, not a b-b-b-b-bully
