BULLYING : What to do about it and what to do if you are beeing bullied

[KCMac]

Hi everyone
Today i recieved traning from kidscape as im an anti bullying person at my school. Anywho , Bullying is a serious issue and dosent only affect children. Adults in the work force also get affected by it too.

The majroity of children these days have been teased , Kicked , punched bullied etc. People go around thinking that its cool to pick on people and dont really realaise what the consequences are until too late.

We also watched quite a moving video on children taking there own lives because bullying got way too much and they had no way out. It had me thinking , Maybe these people where alone . Maybe they had no freinds to sit down and find the way out of the problem with. Life must have been very bad to take there own life.

So for you , if you know off anyone who is beeing bullied or know of bullying
DONT SUFFER IN SILENCE! . There are plenty of people to talk to you about the problem. Try some of these websites on the net for more info:

Totally. Absolutly. No DOUBT about it. bullying is sad, and one of the only reasons you get bullied if you are bullied is because that person bullying you is jealous of you, just remember that ;]

Its true. Bullying shodulnt be tolerated in any form of socciety in work or in school. Some schools have good anti bullying policies and some need help. During my traning we watched a video about people taking there lifes when they had too much of bullying and i noticed that all the smart and clever ones got picked on because the bully is jealous. Well done Jovv for pointing that out

people who bully are insecure about their own life if they bully people about stuff like glasses or braces or soemthing
if i was bullied i tell my friends and we'd try and do something about it

There's a "chav" at our school who has one eye and the other is glass because of an illness, He is the most agressive person, he is in the year below me but he is extreamly vilant and will buly people, obviously because he is not secure about himself.

People who bully are getting or have been bullied themselves-Shout out don't keep it quiet!

Bullies are stupid idiots who find pleasure out of picking on people much smarter/good lookinger than them.

They're obviously jealous of you, in some way.

Bullies go to hell.
