  1. Yes, I have witnessed bullying here at Bedford. A friend of mine was a victim of bullying. She was constanly being picked on and there were rumors spreading about her from one person. Eventually, she couldn't take it anymore and went to someone about it. Things didn't get worse but they didn't get better either, until she went to a counselor and the problem was resolved. If I witness someone being bullied, I should stand for them and stand up to the bully.

  2. 1. Yes, I have witnessed people making fun of others.
    2. Yes, they made fun of my friends glasses and called her weird.
    3. I should stop them and tell them to leave the person alone.
    4. I dont like bullying. People should just stop because its not funny or nice. If you dont know the person or their story then dont say anthing because you will depress them and regret it one day.

  3. No, I have not witnessed bullying at BHS yet. None of my friends have been victims of bullying at the high school and I hope that they aren’t. If I witness someone being bullied I will try to step in for my friend and stand up to the bully or bullies.

  4. Bullying is a big deal in schools know a days. At Bedford I have seen kids getting slammed on the lockers. Neither my friends nor I have been bullied before. If I witness someone being bullied I would go get a teacher or an adult to help the situation. I think bullying is cruel and it is hard to get through. Sometimes when it is very serious it could lead to suicide.

  5. In my first three weeks of being at the high school, I have not witnessed bullying. My friends or myself, luckily, have not been a victim of bullying. If I was a witness of bullying I would take the victim out of the victim without any explaination for the bully. My thoughts on bullying are just as many people, its wrong. Kids shouldn't have to go through the terrible times of bullying. Bullying is a serious matter and can lead to serious problems.

  6. You should never use all caps when messaging or posting because people will think you are shouting. Also you should never use acrynoms when emailing, posting or messaging on the internet. People will not think you are poffesional. Also you should never be sarcastic when messaging someone because the person recieving the message will not know if you are being serious or not. The way you act on the internet will be the way people view you and make assumptions about you.

  7. I haven't witnessed serouis bullying in Bedford, just people calling other people names. I just witness rumors and gossip alot. But that's normal in highschool. If you see someone being bullied, you should tell a parent or trusted adult. Or, you could stick up for them.

  8. Yes I have witnessed people being bullied by getting shoved in lockers and shoved in the hall. No I dont have any friends that are victims of bullying. If you witness someone being bullied you should tell them to tell someone and you tell an adult.

    Yes, I have witnessed bullying here at Bedford. My bestfriend and I have both been victims of bullying. I would rather not share what happened. If I witness someone being bullied I should help and stand up for the person and not just be a bystander. I think that bullying is wrong, and im sure that many agree with me. It is a terrible thing and lowers peoples self esteem.

  10. I have seen bulling at Bedeford but none of which was my friends. A bully is a person who physically or mentally hurts you. It can either be direct or indirect bulling.Bullies make you feel worst so it make them feel better. There are bullies evrywhere and if you see one or are confronted stand straight and dont look scared.If you see a physical fight tell an adult. If you are ever bullied one say stop two address situation three walk away four ask adult

  11. yeah but nothing to serious i'd say.
    No, nothing
    Tell an adult and try to help the victom out in any way.
    I think bullying is wrong and everyone needs to do something about it because it can make people depressed and put bad thoughts in thier head, it lowers thier self-esteem.

  13. I have witnessed bullying here at BHS. I have never had a friend as a victim of bullying, but that doesn't mean that it doesn't happen often. When bullying occurs, you should stop the bully for harming the victim, and afterward telling an adult. Bullies are people that have low self-esteem and therefore feed on other peoples loss of power and sadness. Bullies should be stopped from their wrong doing.
