As a child in school I was bullied and never told no one until now. I shed a lot of tears and went through so much pain that I never wanted to make a huge commotion about it. I had many fights which 2 out of 10 I fought back. Yes, it was bad. Then one day I couldn't take it anymore. I decided to retaliate against those that hurt me. And believe me it was not easy. I swore to my self that no man would lay a hand on me again. I stopped it. Thank God I never decided to take my life or hurt my self. I just became a man.
And it hurts to know that still on this time of age we have bullying in schools, companies, government and even in the religion. But the far most painful is at school. Just because you are fat, don't have money, not one of the cool kids or even because you don't see eye to eye with certain things. Because that cool guy or girl will make you look like a "looser" in front of the whole school.

Bullying is not only done face to face. It's also done with our famous electronic devices. Devices that can kill a person. Not only with a cellphone or a computer can you hurt or bully a person. Posting a picture about that person. Sending massive texts to all the people they know. Or even spreading rumors of things that never happened. Things like that can really take a kid to leave their house, use drugs, kill out of rage, do real poor in school, not go to school and even cause health problems.
Some people say "Well I'll ignore them". How long can you ignore them that won't cause you to get mad and even hurt that person or group of people? You see is not that easy. There are kids out there right now going threw pain. Suffering because they want a way out, not knowing what to do next. There are parents that are oblivious of what their kid goes on a daily basis in school. And others do see a change in their kids.

We as parents need to talk to our kids on a daily basis. Asked them how their day in school was. At least once a month visit that school. Show them the importance of telling someone how they feel. Help them on their homework. Check their computers, tablets and cellphones. Don't be afraid of your child. Because if they live under your roof their is nothing private.

So please if you are reading this and you are a bully. You need to STOP NOW. You can kill someone without knowing it. And parents don't ignore your child. This is the moment you need to be a parent. Let's try to make a difference and stop this rage of hate among kids in school. Because if we don't, part of our life will slip out of our hands and then it will be too late.
