A few years ago i was in a project with my local youth group, me and some friends joined, we did alot of stuff but our main project was an ANTI BULLYING project where we all worked together wth youth team leaders for many weeks and made a video about bullying, we wrote the scripts ourselves, we also played the characters in the film and arranged everything eg filming, director, outfits, where it would be filmed. The film was based on a young girl who was being bullied, she self harmed and tried to committ suicide, in the end she lived, got the help she needed and after many years of her teenage life made friends.
The film is now being shown to schools in my area.
Im glad i did my bit to help but i still feel like not enough is being done, recently a teenage boy around 14/15 from a school in my area, was beaten up so badly he was left unconcious in hospital, as far as i know he's out of hospital now, the reason he was beat up was because he was just a normal quiet boy that kept himself to himself, he was beat up by two boys of the same age as him, they even videod it. which makes me sick to the stomach. I know both boys who did it, one i have never liked as he's just plain rotten and the other i thought was nice, until he did such a horrible thing.
Both boys were kicked out of the school but still
causing trouble for the young boy they attacked.
I think alt more needs to be done about bullying, its cruel and can lead to death.
So if you are being bullied TELL SOMEONE who can help you. If you know someone who is being bullied you should HELP THEM.
NOBODY DESERVES TO BE BULLIED

I really think bullying is horrible. I agree with you 100%.
When you mentioned about the video you and your friends
from youth made. It hard for me. I was bullied (Still am) and I
cut over and over everyday (over 100 times a day) I've tried to committ suicide so many times that I lost count. Almost went through but was brought back 2 times (All I can remember)
It's sad. I stand up for my firends and help them stand up for themselves when their bullied. -
Thanks for posting this!
I think you are right! Bullying is such a huge issue which I think isn't taken so seriusly. I think so parents and teachers think that some kids are just being overly dramatic...and that bullying doesnt exist, BUT IT DOES! Im glad your school has groups like that...its something everyone needs to learn
Thanks for posting this...it really is a serious issue
