Bullying

Today I watched a Episode of Extreme Makeover: Home Edition, the story of this Makeover was about a boy named Ty who used to get bullied in School and in the end took his own life. As I was watching his mom and siblings re-telling the story of Ty I couldn't stop crying even after the show ended. How can a minor have been so much bullied that the only thing he could do was to end his life, how did this thought even enter his brain. Personally speaking I know how bullying can effect someone because I've been bullied too in secondary school and it was terrible, the only reason was because I moved from Germany to England and the only language I spoke was French and German and I liked to be on my own most of the time. Being afraid to go to school, having to plan where I'm gonna eat during lunch because I didn't know anyone to sit next to ( library most of the time), not speaking because you were afraid that it may provoked them into bullying you even more. Luckily for me after a couple of years of just not reacting to the bullies they stopped and I made some great friends whom I love very much and now I'm in University doing what I always wanted to do, furthermore most the bullies didn't do anything with their lives. Being bullied is the worst experience ever but it can make you stronger, always remember that the reason that they are bullying you is because they are jealous of you and remember that you are destined to be someone great in the future. A great movie about Bullying is coming out soon in the US and everyone should watch to understand the effect of bullying.
