Topic: Bullying

Today I am learning about the prevalence and resolution for bullying in schools. Children are often bullied so badly that it causes trauma and depression in the children that are victimized. Some children "do something about it" which usually means taking lives. Sometimes the life they take is their own and sometimes it is of those who did things or did not stop others from doing things to them, and sometimes it is that of anyone. " Bullying statistics show that 77% of students are bullied mentally, verbally, & physically."

Please refer to these cases for more information:
