Bullying

Have you ever been bullied or have been the bully? It’s an easy question to say no to either. Most people do because either they are ashamed of being bullied or too dumb to even notice they are the bully.

In school essentially() everyone knows who the bullies are and who is always bullied, but they rarely ever do something about it. Why? Because you are “uncool”, a “tattle tale” or if you tell…you’ll start to get bullied too. Kids are bullied because of the clothes they wear, the way they talk, where they are from, how they look, or just because they hang out with different people. Nearly 160,000 kids have missed school because of fear of being bullied because of some of these reasons. That’s a lot of kids if you can’t tell. Bullying needs to be stopped. Yes, you hear it all the time, but nothing big has occured() to stop it. 56% of kids have witnessed someone being bullied, yet done nothing about it. One in seven students is a bully victim, and of course is too scared to tell someone. Being bullied can be taken to the extreme, like someone killing themselves because of it, which is happening more often every year, that’s not factual().

Bullying is not right and needs to be taken to an end. No matter how “uncool” you will be because you “tattled" on someone for being a bully, it needs to be done. To many kids are scared of coming to school and even killing themselves because of one person or a group of people wasting their precious time picking on someone because of their flaws. Everyone has flaws, deal with it.
