If anyone doesn't know my opinion and is arguing just because, here it is.
A. Children need to have thicker skin
B. Schools need to be more aware, and listen to complaints.
C. Bullies need more love, and are mostly victims of something themselves.
A.Kids need to be taught to defend themselves verbally and physically. Kids need to be taught self esteem and learning that bullies words need not effect them. At the same time they need to understand it makes sense to feel bad when they are bullied, that no one would like that. Kids need to be taught to speak up for themselves. To tell a parent and an adult.
Kids need to feel like there is someone to talk to at school who will take care of the situation appropriately.
B. Schools need to do more to bring awareness to bullying. Schools need to focus more on teaching kids to have manners and respect one another.
Schools need to promote kindness. C. Schools need to deal with bullies, because letting a bully continue such behavior is NOT loving a bully. And yes bullies many times need more love. And sometimes they need more consequences.
