While some schools have some sort of anti-bullying programs,
a lot of schools do not. Bullying can be defined as a method of violent
behavior demonstrated by the use of power or force to affect those around
him/her. Anyone can be bullied, no matter the way you look, the way you dress,
the color of your skin, how old you are, the gender you are, etc. Essentially,
there are three forms of bullying, which include: emotional, verbal, and physical.
The impacts of bullying can be very detrimental to the student who is being
bullied. They are constantly internalizing their anger on a daily basis. If we allow our future students to be bullied,
then not only are we risking the student of him/her hurting themselves, but
also who those around them.
Students deserve to feel safe at school. They shouldn't be
worried about getting harassed constantly; the only concern they should have is
getting an education. If we see a student getting bullied, then it is our responsibility to make sure the proper consequences are ensued. For more information on bullying, please go to The National Bullying Prevention Center.
