I've been bullied a little sometimes, it just makes me annoyed. The worst place for bullying is on the bus because that's where people can get distracted the most and there is only one person who can get the teaser in trouble. In my experience, whenever anyone gets bullied on the bus, nobody (except the kid being bullied) realizes it's actually bullying. When I tell on someone for bullying, he gets in a little bit of trouble, but he keeps on doing it. I like the part where Brian gets made fun of for his hair and D.J. messes up his hair so it looks worse than Brian's.
Just kidding is a great book.
I've been bullied sometimes, it makes me feel really bad. My favorite part was when the bully kept on saying just kidding. I want to tell the bullies about this book so they would stop teasing me.
The worst place for bullying is on the bus. There is no adult on the bus (other than the bus driver which is driving the bus)so the chance of bullying is greater than in the classroom or at recess, because recess and the classroom have adult supervision.
Yes I have felt like the characters in Just Kidding. Nobody likes to be bullied, but it happens regularly by a small group of kids at Lane.
The worst location for bullying is on the bus and at recess where there is limited adult supervision.
I have been bullied verbally and physically. pretty much all of it was on the bus.
i really think bullies shouldn't bother anyone else because i hate to see or hear other people getting bullied. i wish there was a magic person that make very, very,very kind and helpful.
D.C.
Some bullies think teasing other people is fun but to the person that gets bullied really hates it. Once i got bullied and i really , really hated it. But something good is that i dont see any bullies in lane school. thats what i like about lane school. i think people in lane school are kind and helpful.
D.C.
when Vince bullied D.J., it made me think of me getting bullied before i came to Bedford. people didn't want to be in my team exept my best friend. everybody hated me. i felt like D.J.
D.C.
Just kidding teaches people to not bully other people and it shows how kids feel when they get bullied. I also thought it was an interesting book. I've been bullied on the bus and on the playground and believe me it is not fun to be bullied. It made me mad when they bullied me. So don't bully people!

My feel is very upset because book character Vince always tease his friends.

I have never felt like either character, but I hope that things will be different for others after reading this book. Sometimes there is a bullying issue at Lane, at recess and on the bus. (ES)
The worst place to be bullied is the bus and recess.
At some points the book was odd but I thought It was a good thing that they made up.
I think the biggest problem is the Bus .CS
the worst place i was bullied was at the play ground its a huge bully spot
(lsg)
I have never been bullied but I have seen many people being bullied mostly on the bus.-NLK
Bullying is unfair. I have only been bullied a few times. Most of the bullying is on the bus. Lots of people get bullied on the bus because the bu is so loud and the bus driver has to drive so he can't monitor. (MMW)
I think people bully more on the bus .They because there is no teachers just the bus driver.tg
I have been bullied many times on the bus and on the playground. People make fun of me because I am not from America. Once I stood up for myself they stopped bulling me for a while.
(L.M.W)
I've been bullied only once on the bus like Brian.
PJK
i have never been bullied and i do not want to be. (J)
I've never been bullied, but my friend bullies my brother sometimes. It's usually at my house, in the basement, and my mom never goes down there. I think it stinks to get bullied. (ar)
I have not been bullied before, and I don't ever want to be. I have lots of sympathy for people who have been bullied. I think that the place that gets the most bulling is on the bus, because the bus driver is the only audld.
I haven't been bullied a whole lot but when it does happen it's really humiliating.The worst place for bullying is the bus.On the bus some kids team up on over people and start teasing them. E.G.
No, this has not happened to me before. I havn't seen bulying in lane and I think that the worst place for bully is the bus because their arn't any grown ups to watch and it's loud enuogh so no one can hear insults very well. Just Kidding was a bit short so they didn't have much bullying to deal with.
I have been bullied a .few times.But it was not like every day.I think bullys are anoying because they never get in trouble and when they do they are mearner after.(JPM)
I think the worst place for bulling is on the bus because the bully can't get trouble because the only person that can stop it driving
(PT)
I do not feel like there is a bullying or respect problem in Lane School.(MB)
Yes I have felt like one of the characters in the book before. I felt like no one really liked me and some how i was different.I think that one of the worst place for bulling is at a bus stop because that is were I got bullied.

i think bullying is wrong and bad
(adv)
Every day at recess me and a classmate fight but right when we get
in the classroom we start being nice to each other and we start to talk
about all sorts of things.(MAW)
I think the bus is the least active spot for bullying.I know how it feels
to be bullied.I was getting bullied
I thought people would help me but they didn't.I bet if all of the kids teamed up on the bullies they would
be gone forever.
I think bullying is not good at all.If you get bullied get a trusted adult.Just kidding reminded me was I was in Ct.I was only in first grade.Someone called me names and I told the vice principal that someone called me names.
I have not read the books but I get bullied by my sister.I think builling happens mostly on buses.
I havn't read the book but I know a kid thats got bullyed on the bus so he's getting home schooled
I think the worst place to bully is at recess and the cafeteria.
I think most people get bullied on the bus (bus 2). That is because it's really loud and chaotic. No one is there to stop the bully.
just kidding is a great book.it really got me thinking about bullying and how it could ruin friendships bullying is very bad but bullys think they cant get in trouble for bullying but theyre wrong

I was mostly bullied in the bathroom, the bus & at recess (MDB)
I think it is a great book to know about what bullying is like.
Bullying is annoying. I think the most bullying is on the bus because the bus driver is not paying attention.
I think bullying on the bus is the worst because there is no supervision; the bus driver is focused on driving.
After I got bullied on the bus I felt angry. I have also been bullied on the playground too. That reminded me of the book.
I think bullying is a bad thing to do.(AJP)
I have felt this way before because people would call me names. The worst place for bullying is at recess or on the bus. (kgw)

Bullying is not nice because it can make you sad.
Somebody in my class last year would always bully, swear and pick on me, at lunch. He would pick on kids that don't comment back because he knows that we care about getting in trouble.
I hate Bullying i think the worst place for bullying is on the bus Just Kidding Is a great book kmp
No I have not been bullied. Yes I have felt like this before
a kid when we were on the bus he stared calling me names just like the kid in the story who was geting bullied and called names.
[dtm-l]
I would be so angry I would tell them to stop or tell the teacher.

(K.S.P)

-mh
I do not get bullied very much but other people may have.
I think the worst place for bullying is at recess. (CB)
The same thing that happened to the boy in "Just Kidding" happened to me when I was 8 on the bus.
I think the book was helpful because before I got bullied.
This kids said on the bus that "you're a little third grader". Then I was going to say something to him but I had to go because my bus stop was coming up. He's still doing it to this day and I'm still angry too. (KDb)
I have not been bullied. I have not felt like this before. I think most people are bullied on the bus.
I see bullying on the Boston bus to Lane School. It is not really right of the person. I think they should really stop it.
I think bullying is wrong because it makes people sad.
My friend has been bullied out at recess. I felt bad and some of my other friends got a teacher. MK
One time, about 2 years ago, a little girl in my 3rd grade class was trying to answer a math problem, but it was the totally wrong answer. So, everyone, but me, laughed (Why would I laugh? I'm the nicest girl in the school!)
She felt like she was going to cry.
So, I know what it feels to be bullied. CAD
I think the worst buling is the worst on the bus
bullying always happens on the bus or recess!it is mostly bigger kids that bully little kids.
I think that there used to be a bullying problem at lane school last year but it has cleared up.I think most of the bullying happens on the bus.
I think the worst place for bullying is on the bus.
I know someone gets bullied on back of the bus. I think someone should stand up or report.
i think this book is awesome
i think there is some bullies at lane
mostly on the bus
I think the bus is the worst place to be bullied.
its a bad thing to bully
I have never been bullied before. I think there is a bullying problem in lane school.I felt differently from all the other kids because lots of other kids are being bullied.I think that there is a small amount of respect in Lane School
I have never been bullied before. I also think that this book is good because it tells you about different types of bullying.
Reading this book made me feel different because sometimes I feel like the bully and the bullied person. I think at recess is the place where there is a lot of bullying.
There is a problem in Lane and bullying on the bus. (cdc)
I have been bullied on the bus and they made me feel really bad about myself. I definitely feel that the bus is the worst place for bullying. Especially the back of the bus. I think that Lane school has a bullying problem. But sometimes it still happens at recess even when there are teachers.
bullys are mean
I think the wort place for bullying is everywhere because bullying is just plain bad, I don't think anyone wants to be bullied.
I think the worst place to be bullied
is out side of school. I think the book is a cool book to read. I think there is a problem at Lane about bulling in school.
Teasing can hurt people badly and bullying hurts them. There should be another adult on the bus to supervise.
There is a bully that lives on my block that bullies me all the time. Then he decided not to bully others and I felt much better.
I think bullies should not go to school because if they're just going to bully, then why should they go to school? But I never got bullied. (EJC)
Once I heard that "so and so" said a dirty word to a TEACHER!!!!!!!!!! This is very disrespectful. P.G.B.
A group of kids have been bullying me and a few of my friends at recess.
I think they need to make more fair teams in football.(MRD):)
Bullies should be nice to other kids and to not bully.
I will turn to my mom cause she can always be helpful if theres a problem
I can turn to a lot of people for help. I can turn to my dad, my mom, and teachers when I'm at school.
I.M
I once got bulllied by someone in third grade and he thought it was funny and I was like "ha ha ha...STOP!" and he did.
I think that bullying is a problem at lane school and should be fixed.
I think there is a bullying issue and a respect issue. A solution is that you can turn to any teacher.
i used to get bullied on the bus in second grade. i stopped by telling my father and i think the worst place to get bullied is on the bus.
I think the worst bullying goes on in the bus and at reccess.
There is a bullying issue at Lane School. A solution that could happen is that the person that is being bullied and the bully should be sent to the principals office so that they can work everything out and realize why they were having a problem in the first place and the bullies parents should be called to the school so that they can pick up their kid. That would be the best. To make Lane School a better place we can try our best to stop bullying forever to make not only Lane School a better place but make the whole world a better place that would be the best thing for me i think.
it has happend most to me in the bus line and at recess.
I have been bullied at recess a lot, I tell adults yet they don't do anything, I think the recess monitors should watch more carefully and talk to children who are being mean to others.
i have been bullied a little after i read just kidding i did what helped dj and it helped me
i think that bullying is a problem at our school because it happens everywhere and teachers don't even realize it. -AK
I think this book is boring because I don't get bullied.
I think that kids who are bullying should lay off and think about other kids feelings instead of spending time bullying.
I think there has been too much bullying at recess and people are just too afraid to tell on them.
People you could go to for help are a teacher or a parent. JC
I have been bullied sometimes and it hurts. Know if this happens I tell my friends to try to tell him or her to stop. If this does not work I tell a teacher. I also ask people who have been bullied for advice.-JSP
I THINK THAT BULLYING IS ALWAYS ON THE BUS OR AT RECESS DSM
The bus driver on bus #1 says alot of bad things to a group of kids that aren't doing anything wrong.
JE
I think the worst place for bullying is on the bus because I have seen people get punched and sworn at.
LRB
I think kids should stick up for themselves more. Maybe that'll work.
The most bullying occurs on the bus.
B.O.
I think bullying mostly comes from the bus. And even from the bus drivers. And I think we should encourage people to stand up for themselves like if someone hits you you should hit him back.
AB
I have been bullied sometimes and it was like "Just Kidding" because later that person said it was a joke.
sjr
Help can come from the principal or any teacher. Try to stop bullying by talking to teachers.
i think there is a bullying problem. i've seen people swear regularly. the worst at recess and the most on the bus.
kids don't actually do the things they did in the book. it's usually more violent than that. normally it's worse...
I thought this book was very effective to a lot of kids since last year there was a lot of bullying. now that these books are recommended there has been no bullying this year.
i don't like to be bullied
I think it mostly happens on the bus because people gossip and gossip spreads fasssssst
I see the most bullying on the bus and at recess, but the bus driver should put the bully up front so it won't happen again! And at recess the adults should pay more attention.
-DMK-
I hate bullying. It seems teachers take sides with the bully.
c9
I see bullying on the bus the most. I think the bus driver should do something about it. Bullying is wrong.
I was bullied once and it does not make people feel good at all. Bullies should stop because kids don't like it. Tell teachers. Tell guidance counselors. Stop bullying behavior.
"Just Kidding" should be about friends NOT bullying!!! There's some bullying going on at recess and I wish it WOULD STOPPPPP!!!!!!!!!!!!
SKB!
I think there's bullying at our school. if you see someone bullying you should report them to the principal. Help people not bully and if they do they should be in the office for the next 3 days or at their house. The biggest part is on the us.
HI

I got bullied on the bus the other day, well, maybe not necessarily bullied. So XXXXXXX said x,y,z or something like that so I said what does that mean and they didn't tell me and kept trying to force it out of me.
I think bullies on the bus should be kicked off for two days. I saw a kid getting bullied on the bus for 4 days. I told the bully to go away and he did! Then I told the kid to tell me if he gets bullied again.
NO BULLYING!!!!!!!!!!
You should tell Mr. Ackerman right away.
The bullying is mostly at recess. You should tell a teacher if it happens to you. We should make the bullies call home and tell their parents what they did.
AVD
I think for the people playing soccer they should have to stay on the team. I think people could tell other people to stop teasing. Also for people not to exclude.
Bullying is wrong. Nothing is wrong at Lane.
There is a problem in Lane School. This behavior problem could be solved by telling an adult. You can turn to an adult for help.
I think there should be more teachers at recess and on the bus.
KC
I can turn to my mom and dad for advice. (jv)
The people I can turn to should be my mom, my dad, my teacher, and my two brothers.
(CML)
I thoght that the book was pretty good. In this school we don't get teased very much. We get pushed. No teachers really make an end to this one bully. He's the worst bully in the school.
I thought this book helped me with my bully issues A.H
I have never been bullied before and I think peaple are over reacting but if bullying is hapening it is on the bus. e.w.s.
People here in Lane School are going overboard with this bullying things. Once in a while yes some people get bullied but their are more major problems than a bit of bullying. The world is not a garden of flowers.
APB
I liked this book. It really gave me a different view on bullying. I sometimes get bullied too, mostly on the bus. One time at the bus stop someone kneed me in a place that I'd prefer not to talk about. I hope this doesn't make me a bully, but I kind of like seeing bullies get in trouble. (JGW)
Just Kidding is a good book that can show just how hurtful words can
be. LC
I will never bully anybody.
I think the worst bullying is on the bus
The worst place for bullying is the bus.A guy is bullying 3rd graders.
NM
I think bullying is bad because you can get hurt.
yes just kidding was good
I've been bullied alot by my cousin and friends
Thar is bullying at Lane school
it is on the bus
YOU SHOUDNT BULLY
I think bullying is its absolute worst on the buses. It is absolutely horrible, once even one of my best friends was teased so incredibly bad,the bus driver had to halt the bus and yell at them ten times to stop all the madness!!!
I don't usually get bullied but once I got bullied last year by a few other boy's
JFD
I don`t get bullied.
I get bullied on the bus and at recess. I get bullied and I get teased and get hit
I got teased on the bus before, so I think the bus has the most bullies.
I never got bullied, but some of my friends got bullied. They did not get bullied in school, but outside the school. So, nobody gets bullied in school.
I do not get bullied a lot, but my friends get bullied.
I got teased on the bus before, so I think the bus has the most bullies.
I think people are over-reacting to bullies. I think kids should deal with it themselves, but if it gets out of hand, they should tell a teacher.
I get bullied in my neighborhood all the time, so it's nice to see that other people feel the same way.
I think the most bullying is on the bus. TMR
I think bullying is everywhere; on the bus, in the cafe, and in the classroom. Also at recess, you can get bullied. You can even get bullied at recess when a teacher isn't even looking at you. Sometimes when you first know someone and they say something like "you want to fight" and you really don't know them well you might think that they are a bad person. I was bullied once but it was a long time ago.
i think there is some bullying at lane school but not much.
I don't think there's a problem at lane. sgm
I think that lane school has a lot of bullying and the places that have the most bullying are the girl's bathroom, the cafeteria, and sometimes the teachers don't even know it but it happens in the classroom.
it has happened to my friend in the bathroom
I think bullying is bad because you can get hurt.
I like that book because it reminds me of my neighbor used to do to me and my bro!
