Bullying in school Case history #48

When I read this article I felt bad for the person who was being bullied, and then blamed for bullying other people. This person was assaulted continually, and the school didn’t take it seriously. Even when the parents met with the Headmaster and Deputy Head, they told the parents there wasn’t any bullying in the school, when it was happening to this girl. I’ve seen people bullied before, physically and verbally. I’ve personally been verbally assaulted before, and I’ve regrettably gotten into a fight, which was totally my fault. I’ve also verbally assaulted people before, and it makes me mad that I’ve done those things. I am ashamed that I’ve said mean things to people and started verbal fights.

Homophobic Bullying

I felt bad for the guy in this article. He was harassed a lot at school as well as outside of school. I definitely do not agree with same sex marriage and Homosexuality, it is a sin against God. But verbally and physically harassing Homosexuals is wrong. This man had mean things done to him, which shouldn’t have happened. When I read this story, I thought of times in our school when gay guys got beat up by other male students that were not gay. It was terrible that they got beat up, because they were gay. I feel bad that some gay people get verbally and physically assaulted.

Religious Bullying

That is terrible what happened in this story. The girls that harassed her should’ve got a punishment for what they did, (if they didn’t get a punishment). No one should make fun, or harass people because of their religion or cultural background. I am Pentecostal, and I know some people don’t agree with what we believe and practice and some people probably make fun of our beliefs. But that doesn’t matter to me.

I try to respect people, even if they have different beliefs than me. But I don’t have to agree with other people’s religion or beliefs.

Cyber Bullying

That is serious issue. There are a lot of people out there that want to hurt people, and the internet is a place where they can talk to people, and get to know them quite well. Some people don’t even know who they are talking to, and they give out very detailed information, which can be dangerous. I don’t have any dangerous experiences with talking to someone online.I don’t even do it anymore because it can be dangerous.

Bullying from the perpetrator’s point of view

It is wrong what happened to Clare, but it is also ashame that Clare decided to bully people. Bullying is never acceptable, and it’s good that she realizes that now. I felt bad that she got punched in the face by the two sisters. That’s awful.

I have been verbally harassed before, so I know what that feels like. But, I have also unfortunately verbally and physically harassed people before, which is totally wrong. So, I also know what it’s like to bully someone, it’s not right

Response That’s awful what happened. I felt bad for the people that got beat up for no reason. Also, it was terrible that the Police did nothing and just laughed at them, and gave them a number to call.
