CAN YOU SHARE WITH US A TIME YOU FELT BULLIED AND HOW IT MADE YOU FEEL?
I was in the first grade last year and I was bullied by classmates and my teacher and it made me sad because your teacher is supposed to help you and make you feel safe, and that wasn’t the case.
It got so bad that I got injured on the playground – a student hit me in the head with a swing and nobody did anything about it. . . not the principal, assistant principal or my teacher, and that hurt my feelings because I was a very new student and that hurt a lot.
Now I’m in the 2nd grade and I have a new and nicer teacher who doesn’t tolerate bullying.
Even though I was bullied the first day of school after my parents talked to the teacher, it doesn’t happen anymore which makes me happy!

Because people that bully others are mad at themselves because they don’t want to put the time and effort into positively things, so they put others down. Keep your head up and feet planned to the ground. Daddy love you baby girl and you are wonderful and perfect in every way.
