of middle school. I was a shy kid who didnt have very many friends. This put
a target on my head that basically made me a mental punching bag. It
wasnt until someone stood up for me that I began to gain self-confidence
and more friends. But it was all because that one individual knew what was
going on, and he had the heart to stick up for me.

not as common, but sexual bullying also happens. Sexual bullying follows the
lines of sexual assault or rape. We can prevent physical bullying by
recognizing the signs before it happens. Watch for things such as
unexplained injuries (bruises, scrapes, etc.), stolen/damaged property,
depression, avoiding school/work, and seclusion.
In conclusion, we can determine that bullying is a problem. Whether
we are being bullied or not, it happens. We dont need awareness for it, we
need a change. We need someone to stick up for that person in need. We
need those who are being bullied to speak up. We need people to respect
one another, especially when they have problems they cant change. Its also
important to recognize the signs so that we can make a difference. If youre
witnessing bullying without doing anything, youre just as bad. We cant stop
it all, but by identifying when its happening we can certainly make a change
by helping those that are being bullied.
