bully

Why is it so hard to stand up to a bully? I have recently been bullied, and let me just say it was hard for me to say what needed to be said. My mom told me to just stand up for myself, but now a days its easy just to hide the fact people are hurting you, and ignore the pain. I think a lot of people walk around Norton High School with a fake smile on their face because they're to afraid to show their real emotions. It's so easy to confront people through technology, where people can say what they want because they can't see the persons face. If people were straight up about things life would be so much easier, but people aren't. So how can we change this? Stickers and buttons, coming together showing unity is one way, but what about the people who take it as a joke? I think we need to take a stand just like we take a stand against substance abuse. Have assemblies with people who have been affected by bullying, and have peer guidance to people who need it. Lets stand up against bullies together.
