I still think that a lot of bullied people are going to have trouble reporting the bullies since they might be scared of the possible retaliation from the bullies, outside of school.
What do you guys think?
Yeah definatley,this mentality still exists now in the community I live in and were ment to be adults.There was a guy who lived on this estate and one day while he was driving to work,he saw a copper struggling with a man on the side of the road.The copper was being stabbed with a biro pen but this guy saved the police man.
Basicaly the guy was a hero,I dont like the police much but anyone who riks their saftey to help another human being is a hero in my eyes.The whole community turned against him and his kids got threatend at school.In the end he had to move.
Still its a step forward!Hopefully the chance of the police getting involved might be enough to make some people think twice,that or they just will make sure they dont get caught.
(Edit) Kids can be really horrible.But I dont think it's always out of sheer nast.Sometimes it is obviously.But its like if you didnt have fashionable clothes at my school you would get called a scrubber and laughed at.I think some kids need to be educated that not everyone is as lucky as them..I dont think kids always understand a situaition,they see somthing so they deal with it the best way they know how,to laugh it off and make it a joke.
