Bullying is a very popular disease among the school students today. Bullies
may be specified as endangered species who make fun of others for their own fun.
Although life is a journey and a tough fight, but, not everyones a fighter. Students
with money power try to harm other students and cease their dignity and innocence
for the entire school life. To discuss this current topic, I have divided my sample
paper into 2 sections specifying the practice of bullying and. Bullying means to
intimidate other students to do what one wants. Typically, Bullying is similar to
ragging where a group of people with high profile or superiority do laughing or spit
at the students. One should never do a wrong thing to make friends. Just for the
sake of impressing other classmates, one should not attempt anything wrong that
may harm a student in anyway. (stop bullying.gov)

Some people feel that bullying is a normal part of growing days but, its not
We often come across news, showcasing the effect of bullying in schools and the
side effects on the harmed students. There are various types of bullying
experienced in schools among the students like: teasing, taunting, threatening,
hitting, spitting, and embarrassing others in public place. All these actions may
assault ones dignity. The effect of bullying on the children is so negative, that it

may damage their academic performance. It may force students to even commit
suicide. It harms the students not only mentally but physically, emotionally, and
socially. The cause of bullying varies from case to case. The assault may be due to
some personal reasons or out of jealousy or it may depend upon the family
background of bullies. Such families are considered to be disfunctional as they are
not interested in knowing about their child activities in school. With ignorance
comes fear and the fear leads to madness. Education is the key to acceptance. Such
cases can be avoided by the combined efforts of school, parents and off course with
the help of school students. It is said that with time, everything settles down, but in
such cases we cant wait for time otherwise something bad may happen and then
no one will be able to handle its consequences. ( bullying project.com)normal ,
rather something very aggressive . It has the potential to ruin a students school life
and must be avoided as much as the school authority can, and the parents can.
Although teasing is a type of bullying but not identical to bullying. Teasing is done to
provoke other student with continual distractions. Bullying means an imbalance of
power. Bullied students are unable to defend themselves and this causes imbalance
of power. The school faculty must change their attitude to prevent bullying. They
must be non-judgmental, non-partial to students and must justify all the matters
sincerely not by taking the side of any student but by being reasonable and
practical over a particular matter. Although a school authority performs the duties
genuinely still the news of bullying is often heard. Its because the students remain
quiet and dont bully in the schools because of the fear of authorities but their
thinking remains the same. Maybe they dont harm their classmates but what about
their life, their attitude outside the school? In order to change them completely i.e.,
not only practically or awfully but emotionally also, the help of a childs parents is

indispensable. They must guide their children about their attitude. They must
explain the children about what is right and what is wrong.( stopbullying.com)
Bullying is not called for . if you want to bully someone then do it when at your
house ; but dont take it to school with it. If you take it to school then you have a
way of taking people literally and making people life terrible. Bullying is a terrible
disease that can make people do all of stuff that he does not want to do
