These things happen, you just need to learn to deal with it. When i was a small kid (around elementary and middle shool days) i was bullied and beaten up plenty of times. I got bigger when i got to high shool. Also ran with a pack by then. The local set of the tough guys if you will. Thats when things started to change. I loved picking on, taking on and fucking up bullies after that. My boys didn't know why i had it out particularly for those fools, but i was one of them, so they always had my back. Some things in school were fun..
Have to totally disagree with 2 and 3, unless things have changed a lot. Most (not all) of the popular kids were popular because they got along with all kinds of people. In HS our star quarterback ( he wound up in minor league BB for a few years) was one of the nicest guys in school, even to a nerdy nobody like I was. The real bullies were moody kids abused at home.
And 3, no, school was easily far worse than the neighborhood or church activities, at least in middle school, which was the worst for everything bully-wise.
I wonder if it's just the schools I went to, but bullying wasn't really all that present in my experience. Sure, some people teased some people, but that's all it ever came to.
i used to get battered by older lads when i was 10 i never told my parents or anyone because my parents used to batter me aswell lol. so i thought it was normal used to get abused by everyone fuckin hell
Disagree with the article it is not the goddamn schook job to stop the bullying it is your fucking job to make it stop.
I was bullied and it was hard and I stand up for myself. It was my fault for being weak and to still be weak to some extent.
You dont change the world, the world is tough so rather than #stopbullying you should rather do #stopbeingweak cause the first one won't change but it is up to the weak to becomz stronger.
I always found that in the movies I watched the popular kids "jocks" "cheerleaders" were the bullies which seems accurate to real life. I always wondered why many really popular people are complete dicks?
@danyalovettie44 huh? I don't get why the popular people wouldn't be nicer people who don't get a kick out of making others miserable. A lot of people don't care much about being popular so that's not the only way they act like jerks.
I'm not a bully, but I think bullying is natural for some people with low self-esteem. They do not respect themselves, so they try to obtain peace by disrupting the esteem of others. This may also be brought about by social awkwardness, anxiety and stress; when one may end up bulling someone just for the sake of showing extreme frankness.
If anything, I thought the 'popular' kids were most portrayed by the media as bullies. Like in "Carrie", "The Perks of Being a Wallflower", and Kevin in "Ed, Edd n Eddy".
This is a good take. #1 is true cause I see boards like "Bullying will be punished" but in reality, it's almost always ignored. In some cases even the victim is blamed and told to be a little less "emotional".
People have tried to bully me... Doesn't really bother me. I've never been beatup or shoved into a locker, but I don't think most kids could do that if they tried.
@Northerngal90 yes to keep you quiet and so the school doesn't look bad. My Dad was smart though after I was attacked by a guy on the wrestling team and his buddy they tried to get me expelled because I had some martial arts training and had broken on of the guys noses, he brought me to hospital and had me bound up in a neck brace because I'd been slammed on hard concrete and then our lawyer came with us to a meeting that was supposed to expel me and basically said we would be sueing the school for training my attacker in wrestling and for letting it happen on school grounds. They settled out of court as did my bullies.

you gotta understand the education system as a whole is occult in nature
so they don't care
and yes of course the most popular people bully the most it's how it goes either knock them out or ignore them your choice
youth group is try to teach the kids most kids don't listen only a few
there to busy thinking of themselves
the human race is in sin so expect the worst

#1 rings true for me. It's not just limited to schools either. Even adult bullies outside of school are more and more tolerated.

Just my opinion.

It's because they are insecure and want to make other people feel bad about being "unpopular."

It's all stupid lol. I don't even care for the reason they do it. They just think they're superior to others.
they can fix the locker issue. just get small square lockers.
I was bullied by cheerleaders and band geeks for being on the wrestling team.
Believe bullying goes even more beyond.
I wasn't really ever a part of the popular kids in school but thankfully I wasn't bullied much either.

#1 is true.
Won't argue with #3.

100% agree with all of these. It's true. Kids and teenagers truly are the most heartless bastards...
Yup, it all sucks, people are shit. Nice take though.
All true especially no1. I found that nothing was done but yet when I fought back against my bullies all of a sudden I was suspended.
I never understood that either. You know the whole reasoning behind that is don't you. To discourage

Agree with 1&2 but have no evidence of #3 being true after loads of experiences
#3.. just watch Bowling for Columbine...
Can't really understand why people bully. Because that's a stupid, pointless, boring, hurtful and painful waste of life.
