My father was bullied though out Jr. High and High School. You know how on TV. You see kids get shoved in lockers and put in garbage cans? Well that really happened to my Dad. He was the nerd that got wedges every day and had barley had any friends. The worst thing was, Nobody really cared no one helped him and no one told an adult. He didn’t even want to tell his Mom. “Being bullied was the thing that made me want to stay home from school.” my dad said. (But I guess our last name didn’t help him much. ‘Hooker’) But know he is living a happy life and the guys who bullied Him are either asking for jobs or already work for him. So don’t be a bully.

Remember Don’t bully it doesn’t turn up well, and Don’t get bullied. If you are being bullied then tell an adult It goes the same if you see someone Being bullied as well. I am Stephanie Hooker and that was my Presentation on Bulling and harassment.
