One of the dumbest sentences I have EVER heard is "words can't hurt you". Teachers, parents, other people who are supposed to protect you do nothing bout them. But words can be some of the most hurtful things you can ever use against someone, because when they start to believe those words, their impact can be DEADLY. Bullies say the most hurtful things they can, and never apologize until the person they bully is either doing self-harm or dead or popular. Why is it that nobody in schools seem to care who you are unless your pretty or dead? That is messed up. But words can hurt, they kill. A single word, like "fat", if so many people call someone that, the person starts to believe it, then they start seeing themself as fat, then there is a large possibility they are going to get depression, anorexia nervosa, and die either from suicide or not eating. Teachers do nothing, parents might try an attempt to help, but fail, kids dont realize that that one little word, that one tiny little word, can hurt someone so bad until it is too late. And how about this, instead of schools trying to show someone how to survive bullying, they teach people NOT TO BE A BULLY! And the entire social media doesn't exactly help much. You might be able to find anti-bully sites, or sites like KidzSearch here, but the internet has opened up new form of bullying, CyberBullying. CyberBullying can be just as toxic, if not more. We all know there are real people on he other side of the screen we are looking at, and Cyberbullies know no one can hurt them if thy are mean, cause most the time they are anonymous, using a username, so they are normally cowards that way, they can anything they want, they can't get in trouble. But there is also blocking or reporting on some sites, on others cyberbullys can constantly harass (it IS a harassment) you. You need to actually tell someone if this happens, if it continues constantly, again, harassment, or they sometimes try blackmail as well (using some sort of private information/pictures) that IS illegal, there is a law against harassment. (Appearently there is no law against blackmail where i live, that's messed up).
