My anti bullying story By ollie Mckenna

Task 4

Paul was a weird kid who never really played with anyone and would spend his lunch times reading
books instead of playing with other kids.He also did really well in class and would always have the
top mark in every subject and he never did anything wrong. It started with a few children who didn’t
know him very well picking on him a bit but nothing much just calling him names and stuff like that
but it soon escalated to the extent that some people where hitting him and demanding him money
this was about the time I started to also picking on him but I was just calling him names I had no idea
that people were hitting him. Paul hadn’t told anyone yet because he didn’t want to ruin his
reputation in school so he kept it to himself. It didn’t just end when he got home he would log on to
his phone with 100’s of message calling him names and telling him he’s not worth it or he doesn’t
look normal or something like that. It went on like this for a few weeks and he went home crying
everyday.He stopped reading his book.He stayed inside all lunch and if that wasn’t the worst thing
his results were dropping and he wasn’t doing as-well in class.This is when his teachers asked him if
anything was wrong or if he was just struggling in class.He told them about what was happening
about how he went home crying about how he didn’t feel safe…anywhere and that he couldn’t focus
on anything without the fear of being hurt by someone. The teacher knew exactly what to do in this
situation.They contacted the parents, who were totally oblivious to what was going on and then the
next day: me ,Paul ,and some other boys who were bullying Paul were called in and were told about
how Paul felt and asked them why they did it, and if I’m being honest I think I did it because I was
jealous of how well he was doing in school but when I heard how he felt and what I was doing to his
life I felt horrible and disgusted in myself and I couldn’t believe that just by me saying some things
about him could affect him in such a big way. I know what I did wrong and I know why I did it and
that I shouldn’t let make people feel bad about themselves just because they can do things I can’t.
