Welcome to our blog!!
Please take this bullying problem seriously, Let' talk about it!
Here is what we think.
First of all, we have to say that bullying happens not only in schools, but
in worlplaces. I also found that people in many countries had different opinion
about school bullying. Konjiki no Gash, a famous japanese anime and comic, was
mentioned on this site because the main character, Kiyomaro Takamine was bullied
in a school.
I should have used this website

to get
information about my topic because this website had many information I didn't
use last week, such as physical, verbal, relational, and cyber bullying. I could
understand that bullying does not always occur in schools. That may occur on the
Internet.
I found an useful academic reference on the
Internet.
Many children get bullied because they fail to cope in
satisfactory ways, and get into a reinforcing cycle of poor coping, low
self-esteem, and lack of the ability to get along with friends. As a result of
these mental problems, children lose their ability to protest further
bullying.
Several anti-bullying interventions have been developed and all
schools in some countries are required by law to have an anti-bullying plan.
What matter is to determine whether there are differences in the perceptions of
victims, people who bully others, and uninvolved people. Most victims had been
bullied at younger age, 7 to 9 years. Maybe younger children have not yet
acquired the social and assertiveness skills to deal effectively with bullying.
A study found that more boys than girls are involved in bullying, both as
victims and people who bully others. Results showed that significantly more
short(small) students reported being currently bullied, and short boys were
twice as likely to be victims. Thus, the possibility that bullied children
differ physically from their peers should not be dismissed. Those who are
bullied have a different appearance and those who bully others suffer from low
self-esteem. In order to stop bullying, the bully needs to mature.
