Drama, Gossip, Bullying and Cyberbullies

One thing that YOU can do to make your school year a good one is to not part take in DRAMA, GOSSIP OR BULLYING.  People seem to think that doing these things will make you a better person, a more popular person, when the reality of the matter is that doing this stuff makes you childish and more likely to get involved in probes that no one wants to be a part of. Do you realize what gossip and bullying can do to a person? You could ruin someone's life. You spread a rumor about someone doing ANYTHING to get their way and you could make that person lose all their friends, lose people's trust, lose self confidence and esteem, which could make high school the worst 4 years of their life because your reputation is something you can never get rid of. If it becomes known that YOU spread that rumor you could ruin YOUR life to.




You’re fat, you’re ugly I don’t know why anyone would ever want to be with you. YOU are WORTHLESS, I hope you go kill yourself.

No one even likes you I don’t understand why you don’t get it, just go away so we can all move on with our lives.

I HATE YOU

Don't ever come back to school, just stay there locked up in your room where you belong.


Over the past few years a new craze of bullying has come to light. This form of bullying is known as CYBERBULLYING. What you do online will haunt you forever, because the internet is forever. If you think you're brave enough to post something on someone FORMSPRING, FACEBOOK, MYSPACE, AIM, EMAIL OR ANY OTHER FORM OF ONLINE CONNECTION be BRAVE enough to take the consequences, be BRAVE enough to say it to their face. If you can't be BRAVE enough to confront someone then you have no business sitting behind your computer being a "facebook thug". If you know this is happening to someone you know, or people you know are doing this you need to stand up and say something. You can be the lifeline for someone. The most important thing you can do is talk and spread the word. BE A FRIEND not an ENEMY, we all have enough problems without having to be tormented at home. 




If you avoid doing these things and take a STAND you will feel good about what you're doing and you'll never have worry about the consequences. 


Here are some websites that support campaigns against bullying, and cyberbullying.
