So why do kids in school feel the need to bully other people? Why do they feel the need to be tough guys against the shy and weaker people? Kids just don’t pick on younger people. They usually target people who are shy, they pick on the mentally retarded and they usually pick on people who aren’t capable enough of defending themselves. Why do they do it?

Obviously, they have horrible parents, who raised them pretty badly. The media would blame all this on violent video games and movies, but it’s how the parents raised them. They raised them pretty irresponsibly, which is how they grew up to be. Another reason that kids turn into bullies, is that they have problems in their life themselves. When these bullies first go to school, maybe they weren’t that popular at first. They start bullying as their way of making friends with others. Usually, bullying almost always happen with a group of friends in school. It’s very rare that bullying happens with just one kid doing the bullying, almost always a group of kids. Kids bully ’cause they think it’s fun and entertaining to them. They want to feel accepted with the crowd in school. During high school years, that’s when kids start experimenting with smoking cigarettes/weed or drinking alcohol underage, so their bullying starts from there. Not just kids with a troubled life are bullies. Even the most popular students and successful sports stars in school, they can be bullies too. I’ve seen it all.

Thing is, a lot of kids hate school. They HATE IT. So they pick on other people for their own amusement ’cause they go through boring days in class. Kids will find places to fight after school, at an area where the kids won’t get caught by the school staff. All this campaigning on bullying is a waste of time and it will never stop it.

The only way to put bullying to an end completely is parents need to raise their kids better. Plus, the victims need to defend themselves better too. Learn how to use your temper in return. You have to be mean and be tough to them in return. Don’t beat them up first, ’cause that will just get you in trouble instead. If they beat you up first, it’s okay to fight back to defend yourself. Not only high school boys get bullied. Girls get bullied too. Kids even bully adults that are way older than them too. I’ve seen it all.

You need to be tough. Don’t let them think it’s okay to do it. Grab them by the neck and get in their face if you have to, scream a bunch of swear words or smack them across the head or something. It’ll give them a hint. Be like the Karate Kid, take some karate or something. Do anything it takes to defend yourself. You have every right.
