We have people taking their own lives over bullying in this world. People who literally feel they cannot continue one more day because of how horrible others have treated them. Why would you want to be part of a world like this; why would anyone?
When a bully makes someone’s life miserable by putting them down, making them feel worthless, or saying they will not be missed: they may think it’s a joke, but it’s not. No one is laughing, in the end. Death isn’t funny and should never be toyed with.
I see so many comments on the internet about how awful society is but society is never going to change without people who are willing to stand up and do something to change it. A bully may be laughing now, but if they realized that they’re practically handing someone a reason to self-harm or die would they still act the same way?
I think this is an issue that is incredibly important and that bullying should not be tolerated on any level in schools or anywhere else. We need a system in place to protect kids from this kind of torment and to teach our kids why it’s crucial that they never bully one of their peers.
