Bullying : A Testimony

Last month in the street , one boy came to me. He told me « Do you have a cigarette? »,I answered « No »,then I went home. Unfortunately , one day after at 5:00pm , the same boy struck me.
I ran and fortunately, I saw two policemen in the park and I told them about my problem.
I gave much information about the boy and I went home but I didn't tell anything to my parents .
Two days after , these two policemen called my mother and they told « Come to the police station quickly and bring your mother with you ». I went to the police station with my mother. When we arrived at the police station, the policeman asked me « Is this the boy? »and I answered « Yes, this is the boy who was bullying me ». The boy said « Excuse me and he gave me my money back ».

BULLYING: A TESTIMONY.

BULLYING: A TESTIMONY.

Seven years ago, I was being bullied.

The first time, I was going home after school when two boys came to me and asked me to give them money or food. They took my hand and help me until I gave my apple juice and my cake.
Then, they told me I could go.

The second time, they told me if I didn't give anything they would beat me so I gave my meal for the second time. I was scared. I thought if I didn't talk to anyone it wouldn't stop. So I told the story to my father, he came to school and talked to the two boys.

If...

If...

If I bullied Rodney,
It's because I wouldn't have any money,

If I bullied Jyhad,
It's because I would be bad,

If I bullied Walid,
It's because I would be a kid,

If I bullied Ramon,
It's because I would be alone,

If I bullied Ibnenadeem,
It's because I wouldn't be clean.

By Walid, Narcisse, Ibnenadeem, Rodney and Yacine.

Listen up!

Imagine...

« When your friend is not looking, a classmate takes her pencil. Later, you see the same classmate take your friend’s eraser. What would you do? »

If another classmate did that, I would warn my friend !

Do you ever feel like breaking down?

Do you ever feel out of place?

Like somehow you just don't belong

And no one understands you

Do you ever wanna run away?

Do you lock yourself in your room?

With the radio on turned up so loud

That no one hears you screaming

No you don't know what it's like

When nothing feels all right

You don't know what it's like

To be like me

To be hurt

To feel lost

To be left out in the dark

To be kicked when you're down

To feel like you've been pushed around

To be on the edge of breaking down

And no one's there to save you

No you don't know what it's like

Welcome to my life

Do you wanna be somebody else?

Are you sick of feeling so left out?

Are you desperate to find something more?

Before your life is over

Are you stuck inside a world you hate?

Are you sick of everyone around?

With their big fake smiles and stupid lies

While deep inside you're bleeding

No you don't know what it's like

When nothing feels all right

You don't know what it's like

To be like me

To be hurt

To feel lost

To be left out in the dark

To be kicked when you're down

To feel like you've been pushed around

To be on the edge of breaking down

And no one's there to save you

No you don't know what it's like

Welcome to my life

No one ever lied straight to your face

And no one ever stabbed you in the back

You might think I'm happy but

I'm not gonna be okay

Everybody always gave you what you wanted

You never had to work it was always there

You don't know what it's like, what it's like

To be hurt

To feel lost

To be left out in the dark

To be kicked when you're down

To feel like you've been pushed around

To be on the edge of breaking down

And no one's there to save you

No you don't know what it's like (what it's like)

To be hurt

To feel lost

To be left out in the dark

To be kicked when you're down

To feel like you've been pushed around

To be on the edge of breaking down

And no one's there to save you

No you don't know what it's like

Welcome to my life

Welcome to my life

Welcome to my life

Stop that !

Bully. What does the word make you think of?

For some people, it's that girl at school who always makes fun of them. For others, it's the biggest guy in the neighborhood who's always trying to beat them up or take their things. Sometimes "bully" means a whole group of kids, ganging up on someone else. No matter what situation or form it comes in, bullying can make you feel depressed, hurt, and alone. It can keep you from enjoying the activities and places that are part of your life.
Bullying happens everywhere, whether it's your town or Paris, France. It happens all the time, and it's happened since forever. Because it's so common, many adults think bullying is just a normal part of growing up. You've probably heard parents or teachers say things like: "Don't let it get to you" or "You just have to be tougher."
But why should something that can make a person so miserable have to be part of growing up? The answer is, it doesn't! Each and every one of us has the right to feel safe in our lives and good about ourselves. So IML put together this guide to give you all the basics of dealing with bullies.
Let's start by looking at the different kinds of bullying:
¤ Physical bullying means:
Hitting, kicking, or pushing someone...or even just threatening to do it
Stealing, hiding or ruining someone's things
Making someone do things he or she don't want to do
¤ Verbal bullying means:
Name-calling
Teasing
Insulting
¤ Relationship bullying means:
Refusing to talk to someone
Spreading lies or rumors about someone
Making someone feel left out or rejected
What do all these things have in common? They're examples of ways one person can make another person feel hurt, afraid, or uncomfortable. When these are done to someone more than once, and usually over and over again for a long period of time, that's bullying.
The reason why one kid would want to bully another kid is this: when you make someone feel bad, you gain power over him or her. Power makes people feel like they're better than another person, and then that makes them feel really good about themselves. Power also makes you stand out from the crowd. It's a way to get attention from other kids, and even from adults.
Did You Know...
The word "bully" used to mean the total opposite of what it means now? Five-hundred years ago, it meant friend, family member, or sweetheart. The root of the word comes from the Dutch boel, meaning lover or brother. Big change!
