An example of a bullying scenario for a documentary
Storyboard Text
Hi, I'm here today to talk about bullying. Bullying is the continuous insults or threats someone faces. Now let me tell you my story....
In year 4, I was one of the shortest in my grade. and was very quiet in all my classes. There always is a group of popular people, they decided to bully me because of my height and how socially awkward I was. It made me feel really insecure.
What a midget! Aww poor baby gonna cry? And she can't do anything about it because she doesn't know how to talk to people! Hahaha
I began to wondered if I should change the way I am
Everyday they had something new to say. They started to post mean things about me on social media. I was too afraid to tell anyone, so I just let it build up inside. Until the day I couldn't take it anymore.....
'Hey everyone! Look at this short looser!' If you wanna see more click follow.Comments: #wierdo, #total looser.
I decided to tell my mum which helped me feel better to release some of this pain and confusion.
Some days I just looked up at them and felt helpless
Just leave me alone! I am sick of you guys bullying me! Go find something better to do!
Mum helped me by giving me the advise to stand up for myself! To tell them to leave me alone. And they did! In that moment it felt like the whole world was on my side. I finally felt free.
FINE then!, Come on guys, lets go! Lets not waste our time!
I am now comfortable with who I am and they way I was made.
Thankyou for reading my story. I hope that you will take my advise and add it to your own!
