    The article "Whose Job Should It Be To Stop Bullies?", was written by Tanya Ballard Brown. The article is explaining about what happened to Phoebe Prince, a girl who was bullied and commited suicide because of the bullying. The people that bullied her are now being arrested for murder. The main idea is to aware parents that bullying is going on and how it can affect your kid's life. It is also telling kids and parents how to deal with bullying. After reading the article, it has saddened me that kids would actually bully someone to the point of suicide. I have experienced what it is liked to be bullied. But I'm not sure if I wanted to kill myself because of it. It just seems to me that someone needs to put a stop to this crime.

    In the NPR radio broadcast, “Whose Job Should It Be To Stop Bullies” broadcasted on
    October 12, 2010 Tanya Ballard Brown about bullying. She wants people to pay attention to the signs of bullying. She is writing this for everyone, so that they are aware of bullies. The main idea is to have different strategies for handling bullies. Her parents told her not to “start a fight, but to finish it if someone touched” her. They wanted her to not let anyone bully her. She also said that you can also just walk away. My reactions to this broadcast is that it is really sad that people are taking their lives because a bully. It is sad because they should be able to get help from someone and it is sad because people are so mean.

    The title of the article is "Whose Job Should it be to Stop Bullies?" and came from a website called Tell Me More. The article was wrtitten by Tanya Ballard Brown on April 15,2010. The purpose and intended audience of this article is to inform and teach parents of kids how to prevent their kids from being bullied. The main idea is that when your kid is being bullied it is partially the parents fault and some teachers don't want to get to involved. The supporting ideas are the little stories about the boy and the girl who got bullied and the girl hung herself. My thoughts and reactions are that something like that has never happened to me and I am thankful for that also bullying is dangerous and not at all smart to do to someone else.

    "Whose Job Should it be to Stop Bullies?" by Tanta Ballard Brown was published on April 5,2010. The purpose of this article is to inform parents of teenagers and even kids about the bulling going on around the country. The main idea is to get out the message that kids are taking their own kives because they are being bullied. "The victim, 15-year-old Phoebe Prince,hanged herself on Jan. 14." I think that it is wrong that kids are hanging them selfs because of what other people think about them, i think that any kids that read this article will realize what other people think about them doesn't matter.

    "Whose Job Should It Be To Stop Bullies" on NPR.org by Tanya Ballard posted on April 5th,2010 informs readers of all intended ages about bullies. It tells us about a suicide of a 15 year old victim,Phoebe Prince,and how she hung herself because of bullying she was getting after briefly dating a popular guyat her high school.The main purpose if this story is to stop bullying. No one should bully or be bullyed, ts not right either way, but how do we stop it? I think the victim should stand up for themselves instead of just letting them talk or hurt you. I think martial arts or self defense classes would strongly help students or even adults. You have to stand up for yourself.

    Reading this article about bulling, mad me feel really bad for the kids who feel verbally abused so much, to where they commit suicide. After i read Jonathan B5's response to " Whose Job Should It Be To Stop Bullies?" i felt that me and Jonathan B5 were on the same page. Jonathan B5 both feel that people shouldn't feel bad about them selfs just because other people don't like them.

    I agree with the main idea but I also think that the article is also to inform teens what's going on in life of other teens.I also think that bullying is wrong but if you're being bullied is not easy to ignore the bully or bullies because that's one of the reasons they bully so they can annoy the person. I think that the person who's being bullied should inform someone that they're getting bullied and that,that bothers them so they can not end up doing something that will harm them or someone else.

    "Whose job is it to stop bullies?," by Tanya Ballard was written on the date April 5, 2010. This article was written to show the harmful effects of bullying. It was intended for pretty much everyone who know and seen effects of bullys, especially teachers. The main idea was to get the point across of how wrong bullying is, and how to stop it. Some of the examples of stopping it were fire the teachers who let it go on, tell the bully's parents, and even expell the bullies. I thought this article was sad to hear about what happened to that girl who was bullied. I think that they should try harder to stop it, but i don't think it will ever truely go away so everyone should learn how to stand up for themselves.

    Whose job should it be to stop bullies? It came from NPR find a station online.By Tanya Ballard brown. Created on April 5, 2010. It shows how kids that get bullied a lot can go into thoughts of suicides or end up doing it once they get it in their mind that there not good enough. Now there saying how can they stop the bulling from happening. From anyway so their kids won’t kill them self from it. Some parents are saying they should go and take karate lessons so they can learn self defense and protect them self for their sake. They know the kids won’t just go to the teacher and tell on them because they will get mock just by telling and will be embarrassing. I think kids that are being bullied should work as a team and beat them up! I’m kidding. I don’t know what to do I never been there but I would not think of suicide just because of being bullied there’s a time where it got to stop and should go to someone to stop it.
