Harassment

            Everyone get harassed no matter what your sexuality is some people get bullied for being black or white or Mexican, while others get bullied for being gay or lesbian, others for their height or weight. So the truth is that in high school you get bullied either way it all just depends how you take it you can either go and crawl in your room and cry about it or you can make a difference.
In life everyone has someone that bullies him or her. Either it’s at home or it’s at school. Some people even have it in both places. Teens need to learn how to take negative things and make them positive. Everyone has gone through bulling. Everyone from the president of the United States to your next door neighbor but you just need to stick up for yourself and say its enough and just channel all that negative energy into a positive outcome. An example of taking a negative energy and putting it into a positive energy is when someone tells you; you cannot do something or you’re too short or too fat to do that. You go out and you prove them wrong and you show them that you could and you did do it. Everyday were faced with challenges in life but all depends how you take it. Some people decide they can't take anymore so they kill themselves. But why would you kill yourself if that’s just gonna give your bully what they want?
The people that get bullied the most are teenagers. Most of the bullying happens at school, but there is a way to stop this, and its by standing up for yourself or sometimes when someone tells you something the best thing that you can do is just ignore them because its better that way they might keep trying to bully you but once they see that it doesn’t bug you they wont bother you anymore.

  1. It was interesting to hear your opinion and you had a good message about standing up for yourself. However, add some suggestions you would make to someone who is constantly bullied. What if turning the other cheek did not stop the bully?

    Double check your grammar and you use commas and semi-colons in order to keep your essay from having to many run on sentences.
