My Thoughts on Bullying

Bullying is something has has been going on for years. Students suffer from verbal, physical, and emotional abuse. In my case, I haven't been a bully or been bullied, but I have witnessed it. It is an awful sight. The older, bigger student pushing the smaller, younger student around and putting them down. Not only have I witnessed it, but almost every student has witnessed some sort of bullying, whether it is pushing, verbal abuse, or spreading rumors. But the way I see it, bullying only happened because the bully is dealing with an emotional problem. Kids aren't born as bullies, they become into them. For example, a student can be dealing with problematic parents who don't care for him or her, and the student just wants to release all that sadness and anger, but the way they unchain themselves is by bullying another person. Another example is when someone spreads rumors or a rude comment about someone, when in reality, the bully envy's that person and is jealous of what the victim has that they don't.
