What does the term Bullying mean to you?
Treating others in ways they do not wish to be treated, of course.

For being bisexual.
Have you bullied in the past?
Yes siree.
If yes, why?
To get back at them, i suppose. Other times it's always a joke, but in the past i didn't know
that the person may not think so. Caused a heap of problems..
Why do you think others bully?
Well, to show that they're "tough" or they've been bullied in the past and just.. yeah O:
Why do you think kids feel better when they bully others?
Hmm.. well if the kid that has onced been bullied suddenly decides to bully others then yeah,
they feel good about hurting others. Letting out their emotions, how mistreated they've been.
Guess it's like a "feel my pain!", revenge sorta thing.
Are the administrators / school disciplinary / assistances / teachers actually helpful? (In General) Are the administrators / school disciplinary / assistances / teachers helpful in your schools / schools around you? (In your area)
Yes, it's tight security at my highschool.. The teachers are very open, they encourage us to
come to them when these sorts of problems occur. However, a majority of the students don't seek
help from the teachers. I'm just thankful that hardly any bullying happens at my school C:
Are parents doing too much or too little to help?
Depends on who you are. As we know, many kids don't really tell their parents. Teens, really.
Whereas if i were to tell my parents that i have been bullied.. -shrugs- won't be pretty.
Can violence solve violence?
There are some stubborn kids out there who don't really get it when it comes to words,
so yes. Sometimes a good beating
can solve things,
sometimes.
Do you have any helpful ideas that may reduce bullying / suicides due to bullying?
Argh i feel terrible.. but no. There's plenty of help lines and such, but the kids..
just don't seek help
Do you know of anyone who comitted suicide due to bullying?
No, thankgoodness.
Have you seen others being bullied? 1. If yes, did you help? If you did not, why? If you did help, how did you help? 2. If no, why not? Do you regret not helping?
I actually have never seen a kid get bullied. I hear of it, but never see. My cousin used to get bullied,
she told her teachers but they never really did anything. Eventually she told me about it, seeing as she didn't
really have anyone else to turn to. Turns out that it was a boy, bout her age, 13 ish. He bullied her,
verbally. Called her names and such. So, the little rash me. I went to his house with a few mates at
1 am, when we knocked on the door.. and when he saw us he started crying --. We talked about it, about him mistreating her, she got to clock him in the jaw. But yeah ever since then no one bullied her :3
Have you seen a good friend get bullied?
No, hope i never will.
