i understand how they feel

I somewhat know they the kids feel that were on the show today. In middle school I used to get made fun of a lot. I am 14 years old, and a sophmore in high school, and I am not made fun of as much anymore, so thats good. But sometimes girls yell at me or cuss me out and it really hurts. I was so sad when I watched what they were going through.  I understand how Tess feels, because a lot of my fights happen on this webpage called xanga.com  My worst enemy is on there and she is like 18 or something. and she is constantly writing mean stuff about me, or cussing me out. And I don't understand how kids can be so mean. I feel so bad because I hope there are no kids in my school like Tess or the boy(I didnt get his name-im sorry).. Because if there are and I don't regonize them and they end up getting homeschooled or worse, kill themselves like that one girl did-I would feel responsible. Because like Dr.Phil's son said today, if you stand by and just watch them get made fun of, your just as bad as the bullys. And I would just feel horrible. This is why I am not a bully. Because I understand how it feels and I would never want to put someone through the pain that I went through..When I saw the boy cry today, I instantly got teary eyed because I thought it was so sad. And when that girl killed herself, that was sad. And Tess having to be homeschooled. I mean how can girls be that mean?! And over a boy? Come on!! Reading this over I realize I am bragging about myself a lot. And I am sorry. I am just upset and inspired by the show today, and I just wanted to write my thoughts.

I love that song

Quote From: tycinteg

I know this is an older show, however I want to make a comment. At my children's elementarty school, they have a no teasing pledge that they recite at each town meeting. They also sing the country song, Don't Laugh at Me. I really think education against bullying has to start early.

Hey I really love that song. my sister met the singer Mark Wills. Anyway I think thats a really great idea! My sister and I used to say that we were going to have an assembly and play that song, so everyone would stop the bullying, and gossip. But we never did, because I am 14 and she is 17 and I don't think the principal would have allowed us.
