Anticyberbullying Stories

WACS (pronounced "whacks") is a support group designed by user @_Goopsepticeye_ in order to help maintain positivity and peace within the community. If you or a friend are being victimized by an unfriendly user, we are here to help.

Your challenge is to create a 500-word short about rising above cyberbullying and spreading positivity. Tag your story with #RiseAbove! The top 10 stories as selected by our Wattpad staff will be featured in a reading list on the @TELUS profile, and sent to TELUS' #RiseAbove committee for judging. Let's help start a movement, and end cyberbullying! One winning entry, as selected by TELUS. The winner will walk away with a brand new Essential phone!

Dear whoever has said 'stick and stones may break my bones but words won't hurt me', You lie: yes, stick and stones may break your bones, but words may just hurt you more; and Jacob is about to find out how much words really hurt. Think before you click, because it only takes one. ;----------------------------; note: this whole work is a figment of my imagination so any coincidences are purely just coincidences; just because this is something i made up for this contest doesn't mean it doesn't happen in real life. take that into thought when you say something to anybody online. spread love, not hate; only love. whoever needs help, please get it! i know it's not easy, and me saying this will do nothing. you don't have to talk face to face with anybody; i will be making a book all about helplines and websites you can reach out to; the helplines will go beyond just bullying. mental health is an overall topic our society NEEDS to touch on. please be safe, darlings! p.s. if you can't join the contest, please, at least consider writing for the sake of getting more people aware of how serious of a problem cyberbullying is. just because it isn't said face-to-face doesn't mean it hurt less. © 2017, Kimberly J.
