It affects our ability to learn. It also affects the mental and physical well being of the students in our schools. We need to feel like we can concentrate on our work, not looking over our shoulders, waiting for someone to try to beat us up. The emotions of others are as important as your own. Everyone has feelings.
Some people can t ignore what others say, and they get their feelings hurt easily.
People who pick on others are known as bullies. No one wants to be around a bully. My only wish is for the kids of our time to be able to be themselves without the fear of bullies, or crazy teenagers with a grudge and a gun. When a person lives in fear of bullies, they loose their ability to express themselves. Over time they forget how.
