Bullying is an issue that will or has affected everyone. The definition of bullying is to use superior strength or influence to intimidate someone. Every 1 in 5 students are bullied at school. Do you want to send your children, friends, or family members to a place where they feel alone, abused, and helpless? The terrible act of bullying will continue to become a bigger and bigger problem unless we ALL change the way we think and act. If you believe that schools need to change their approach to handling bullying situations, sign this petition and help be the change you want to see in the world!

I have been reading through all the comments coming in lately and honestly some of these stories about what happens in the hallways are just gutting. It makes me realize that we have a massive mountain to climb but hearing from you all keeps me glued to the keyboard even when I should be sleeping.

I really thought this might just disappear into the void but looking at how many people keep showing up for this makes me feel like things might actually move in a different direction for once. It is honestly overwhelming to see this kind of energy building up because I remember sitting here feeling like I was the only one worried about these schools. We have real momentum now so keep holding onto that.

Bullying needs to be taken more seriously in the way that it impacts those effected by it everyday. From my own personal experiences to those enduring it now. It is a painful experience that many people facing it don't know where to go , or where to turn. It can feel hopeless in the way to be targeted and mentally/physically abused by the way bullies go out to target others. When you don't have a support system especially, it's easy to give in to. We need to build that system now to help those find a voice and get the justice they need. To show that the problems are there and that we can bring a light to that darkness that lives in our society.

This is a great cause and everyone should sign. I was bullied all throughout elementary and middle school and my school never did anything to help it. We need zero tolerance programs for bullying added into schools.

bulling is a problem and i’ve seen a lot of my friends go to our assistant principle and other staff and they just push it to the side like it’ll heal over time, but really it doesn’t!

I am not sure how we stop bullying, but we at least have to recognize when it is happening.

Bullying most definitely needs to stop especially in schools.
