"My experiences with violence in schools still echo throughout my life but standing to face the problem has helped me in immeasurable ways.

Schools and families are in desperate need of proper tools to confront this problem. This piece is a starting point." - Shane

[Claudia P]

Teens react. Please.

[animeteller333]

I think this gets the message across better than teachers telling you about bullying, but that's just me.

[Hunter Muench]

This is my entire life captured on a video. I have severe depression. I have tried overdosing several times, and cuts fill my wrists. I'm a 15 year old boy. I can't eat anymore, I can't sleep, all because of kids that make fun of me. I put this on before my teacher taught a science lesson because i needed to express the way i felt and how my lifes basically been. This describes it.

[realedgy666]

"Our will to rebel" you sound like some kind of renegade of high school outcasts ready to fight the government lol

anyways, it is a necessary evil because effectively stunting childen from interacting with each other will debilitate their social skills and in the long run, they will become very socially awkward even as adults, with a distorted view. These kids would not mature properly without natural interaction with minimal interference.

[Angeigou Zatrix]

This is deep

I watched this soo many time.

[realedgy666]

same reason that you think I'm a loser, posting shit I don't like on a random youtube video

[Umadbro2018]

Please, you're on the wrong video for this kind of behaviour.

I respect that it's your, but it is harmful and bullying isn't helpful, it's dangerous. It's the difference between somebody killing themselves, starving themselves, slashing their wrists and all-around mutilating their bodies. Being told your a freak doesn't help anything, except our will to rebel, our will to be ourselves and not conform to society.

[coolio5715]

If you need to talk I will talk with you. YOU are NOT Worthless, Useless, Ugly, or Weak. And Im really here if you need to talk.

[Umadbro2018]

They showed this in class yesterday and I was almost the only one who cried.

[John Watson]

I'm not bullying anyone. 

[Edefrem]

Care to tell me why?

[realedgy666]

I think you are a loser back
