Bullying in the Eye of the Victims Part 8 : Sticks, Stones, Broken bones, or is it broken hearts

Sticks and Stones May Break My Bones but Words Will Never Hurt Me

That saying is one of the most untrue statements i have ever heard someone say. People do not realise how badly words can hurt someone, and sometimes words can hurt worse than sticks and stones. Just becuase you have heard rumors about a person, it doesnt make them true. Most of the time they are NEVER true.

Never Say Never

That is another statement that i have a problem with. If you never say never, then you can never really express how much you want something NOT to happen. A person who is bullied cannot tell the bully never to insult them again becuase it hurts them. Never is used thousands of times a day, and it is one of the most important discribing words. I cant stand it when people tell you to never say never becuase they just said never twice and then they say that its different, they were just telling someone not to use the word.

Dont Judge a Book by It's Cover

Now, that is a statement that rings true, and i love it. The problem is, the first two statement's that i talked about are spoken a lot more than that last TRUE statement. Thats the way the world works though, every day there are more false statements spoken than true statements. People use false statements to hurt people a lot. Kids and Teens today, use this method to harm a person emotionally and sometimes physically. That is called bullying. If you really think about it. The route of bullying is a single lie. Its hard to believe it, but in my eyes, its true. Just think about it.
