  • Essay / Let's Stop Bullying - 957

    Bullying, a word that threatened teenagers with abuse, harassment and many things that could be quite deadly and affect them physically and mentally; many teenagers in schools suffer from this case. This has been a serious problem over the years. The number of bullies and victims is constantly increasing. Victims are usually harassed throughout classes and beaten with words and actions also during lunch breaks. This type of action, or more likely bullying, could have very disastrous effects on the adolescent's life; where they could be traumatized and scarred for many years and not easily forgotten while bullies full of bad deeds precede them to move on and lead another life. Therefore, we must stop bullying; first Observation and attention are two main factors that parents should do to ensure the safety of their children. Second, schools must adopt measures and rules regarding bullying. Third, adults, friends, and families should have open communication with the member being bullied as well as the bully. Families need to monitor their children to know what is going on in their teen's life. Valerie Binney (2012), a researcher at the University of Sheffield, writes that parents should keep an eye on their children. Because sometimes when parents tend to be busy and forget about their children, they will miss most of the events that happen in their children's lives and sometimes they will never be able to be a part of what is happening no matter how much they efforts. Again, children can be extremely bullied and parents will not realize it. Observing the child continue to put them down and sit with them every day gives parents the opportunity to share with their children their event of joy, sadness and frustration. By doing this, a routine will give parents the chance to get to know their children better so they can know if something is wrong. For example, a child who is happy and loves food suddenly starts eating only a few pieces, but he is still happy, this is something that observant and attentive parents might notice right away. Bruises, personality, eating habits, and physical appearance are things that parents need to keep in mind because bullying is a very serious problem that parents need to be careful about and keep their children safe. Schools today must build an anti-bullying system and take certain measures and rules to ensure the safety of students. Pierre K..
