We were pink because Bullying is a problem in our schools and every were we go. This is a way to help people to stand up against bullies and step in when we see its happening. This event was created by David Shepherd and Travis Prince 2007 in Nova Scotia. they had an idea of wearing pink shirts to help a grade 9 guy that had being bullied, because he was wearing a pink shirt the first day of school. So they decide it that the next day, they were gonna wear pink shirt to stand up against the bullying.
The bully is the person that creates the violence or bullies the victim. They think that bullying someone else feels right and that it's okay.But it's not.
The victim is the one that receives the bad treatment from the bully, they are the ones that have to support every single thing that the bully do to them, because they don't do anything about it. Sometimes the victim take away their life because they think that they don't fit in this world, and that no one cares about them anymore.
The bystander is someone that sees or knows about bullying or some kind of violence to someone else.The bystander can helps to solve the problem or just walk away thinking that it's not their fault and that they are not the ones bullying that person.
This is some of what i learned in Heather's blog.
But there is still the sad part about pink shirt day. Many people who participate by wearing a pink shirt don't actually stand up to a bully. Some times it is because they are scared that they will start a fight (and nobody wants that). Or they could care less about what happens to someone. But no matter you need to stand up for the kids who feel as if they have no voice. Okay so in a "bulling" scene there is a bully, bullied (or victim) and a bystander. The bully is the one obviously being mean and consistently hurting someone. The bullied we all should know is the person getting beat up. Most of us know what those two are but the bystander most people are like "who is that". Well the bystander is the person standing off to the side mostly watching. The definition is a person who is present at an event or incident but does not take part. Strangely the bystander has the most power, he/she has the power to stand up for the victim. Some people ask "why should I stand up for them they aren't my friend?". Well would you like if someone was bullying you and people just watched. Most likely not. So help someone who is getting picked on.
Good job Andrea! You have lots of information.
