Bullying Prevention Starts with You & Me

The level of awareness starts with individuals, from the Front Page Sections, translated…

The survey of bullying experiences showed, that over ninety-percent of surveyed believed, that bullying can affect someone for life.  But the Department of Education’s alert systems recorded number of bullying was way lower than the confirmed cases of bullying, the Children’s Welfare League worried that there are, way more unreported incidents.

The relational bullying increased to eighty percent, at the highest, and cyberbullying, with the prevalence of hi-tech devices, is also on the rise.  Verbal insults, being made fun of, and singling the victims out, are showing up everywhere, and because evidences of these are hard to collect, the damages from these are way severe, compared to the physical injuries.

Recent years, there’s this heightened awareness of anti-bullying, the schools are now, carrying a careful attitude, that they’d rather, report an incident that wouldn’t classify as bullying, then to not, and through the anti-bullying board set up by the schools, to find out the truth.  And if the cases didn’t make it to the anti-bullying board, the school would also continue to counsel the victims.  And yet, due to the lacking of personnel in counseling, it’d become, the weaker link in handling of bullying in school.

The anti-bullying awareness should start at home, with correspondences in social awareness, getting rid of revictimization, reducing the victims and the bystanders, with the social environment working to change, to reduce bullying.

Yeah uh, easy for you to say, but, the bullying in school usually starts at home, the bully is a victim, of violence from the home, that, is why s/he needed to, externalize the hurt, and bully the weaker ones in school, and if you don’t solve this problem from the home front, then, how can you possibly, TACKLE it in school, huh???
