My Voice On Bullying



 There are many reasons why people bully others. I believe the biggest reason people bully others are to take away confidence. Bullies try to take away confidence to make someone feel as if they are worth nothing or no one cares for them. Some examples of how they do this is calling others names or telling false accusations about someone. They also bully online. They post things online that are cruel. The worst part of being bullied is that the victim goes to extremes because of being bullied and kills himself/herself or they do harmful actions to themselves.
  I think someone would be more likely to take a stand on bullying in real life because more people can get involved and several different events or programs can be held to speak out against bullying. Some examples of this would be going to schools and raising awareness about bullying or organizing some kind of rally against bullying. These kinds of actions could help others take a stand against bullying and lead to further action to support a stand against bullying. This could possibly lower bullying and stop the cruel violence known as bullying.
  If I witnessed someone being bullied, I would immediately inform an adult or if there is no adult, I would try to stop it myself. Bringing an adult would immediately stop whatever action was occurring. An adult can contribute to whatever type of bullying is going on. This is what I would do if I witnessed someone being bullied.

  1. I like your comment about bringing in an adult, but do you think that would truly work 100% of the time?

    1. I do not know if it will work 100% of the time, but it seems like the first option to go to in that kind of situation.
