It is okay to disagree, but do it in a polite manner.When Elliot writes about his experience with the Jock Rots and sends it out over the KidNet, he includes the following quote in his letter."I think people ought to realize that stuff like this goes on every day…The rest of you are all part of it-because you let it go on and maybe you think it's funny, or you think it only happens to geeky outsiders and kids who are smaller or fatter or skinnier or don't have so many friends or so much money as you. So tell me-what happens when you don't have so many friends one day, or you don't have so much money, or something bad happens to you?"

The message that Elliot is trying to get across is that every one is apart of bullying not just the bully and the victim.

The information you included was good, but you should definitely write more about it, also try to get really deep into the story and find evidence from the book to prove your point.

You've got a main point Hunter. But write down page numbers and find evidence. You should also add some more details to it.
