Bullying hurts people, and it drives so many to commit suicide. In the past, it wasn't as big a deal since children were all raised in 2-parent homes. That taught security and stability, as well as a healthy dependence on others. So children started school in a less vulnerable state of mind than now. Also, we now have technology that didn't exist before. You can now bully a person without even going near them and have the entire world as a witness. You can post doctored videos of them online, defame them before many, and use technology to set people up to be harmed by others. So the impact is not the same as in the past where if someone gave you a bruise, you'd put some ice on it and that would be the end of it. It is now more vicious, even with less physical violence.
They actually can become abusive with relationships and do domestic violence
Bullying has become such a major problem because bullying results in either suicide or extreme violence. School shootings have happened in the past because of bullying.
It is not only a social issue.
bullying is serious problem there is no good start to this subject sorry
Bullying is a very serious problem in schools worldwide. Every school has some form of bullying, and it is unavoidable. I believe teachers need to be trained to deal with bullying better, as many simply ignore it rather than acting upon what they see. Generally private schools have less bullying than public schools, but they still have the problem. Being bullied as a child affects a person for the rest of their life, and can lead them to depression and perhaps eventually suicide.

Stalking is not considered a type of bullying, because bullying is defined as pressuring others to do things by force. However, if it makes you feel scared or threatened by a stalker, it is important to address the problem because it is serious.

Bullying can be done locally, from a distance, or both.
it could depending on how serious it is
Bullying can be a very serious matter, depending on the severity of it. Harmless taunts and insults like "you suck", or other friendly banter won't be considered very serious. However, if someone is to constantly insult another person in an alarming way, such as death threats and physical actions against the person, it can be considered very serious. In another way of taking the question, it is a very serious problem in the world, and from what I have seen in my research on it, not nearly enough is being done on it.
Yes, bullying is still a major problem in all schools today. Elementary, Middle, and High Schools still have bullying and principals, teachers and parents need to come together to form a solution to the problem.
too big of a problem :p
There are probably a number of good clincher sentences for dealing with bullying. Here are some possibilities: "So there you go, don't bully anyone, or I'll have to beat you up!" "You can see that bullying is a serious problem. So what are you going to do about it?" "In conclusion, bullying is responsible for many suicides. Don't let bullies kill our next Einstein or Mozart."
Certainly. Bullying has been a worldwide problem throughout history.
