Are you a victim, a bystander, do you stand up? They’ve hurt you mentally, physically, and you’ve finally had enough of it. Either way, you can help. Bullying is something that is repetitive over time, and has to do with 2 people and one usually has the upper hand. Mostly, between a popular and unpopular kid. As a student in Jerling Junior High I was bullied and was known to be a bully. I was bullied for a whole year by my best friend. I was known to be a bully to my good friend. In the end, we all made up and went our own ways. I researched middle school bullying because it is a huge problem and I learned how different types of bullying happens in school, how some kids believe that harming themselves is a solution, and even how teachers get bullied, not just students.

Starting at very young ages there are bullies. They develop early and often never grow out of that stage, but rather it just increases with time and age so the crimes become more serious. This is why it is necessary to target children with their unkind or violent tendencies before it gets out of control. Children usually turn into bullies for reasons such as craving attention, wanting power, low self-esteem, inability to control anger, revenge, or even to be popular. Popularity comes to bullies in grade school because students who like and are liked by the bully will most likely not be bothered, so it becomes a safety issue. With this last point especially, it just

In a study taken by the American Medical Association it was reported that over 3.2 million students are victims of bullying each year. Out of these 3.2 million they found that approximately 160,000 teens skip school every day and 1 in 10 students drop out to school to escape from repeatedly being bullied. Reading these statistics, you can almost hear them call for someone to step up against this horrid and harassing act known as bullying. However, in a room full of bystanders, not one voice has the courage to stand up and intervene when someone is being bullied. As parents, the main goal to have should be obtaining every bit of information you can on what is happening in the lives of your child and teach them how they are capable of turning things around and stepping up against bullying by becoming an upstander.

There are many roles that individuals can play when it comes to bullying. Some participate in bullying others.

"Children who bully are often rewarded for their behavior materially through money, other possessions taken from peers, or psychologically, through achieving high social status and prestige (Kowalski, Limber, and Agatston 2008). Research also suggests children who bully have dominant personalities and like to assert themselves with force; they have tempers, are easily frustrated and have positive attitudes toward violence compared to other children" (Carter 27). If a student recognizes that they possess some of the same traits as a bully, they should know that there are alternative, healthier ways to satisfy their needs for violence than getting into fights with others. If a physically weaker victim is consistently in fights with their bully, they should know that there are different options to confront their bully with. They can ask help from their friends, they can tell an adult about their predicament and see if they can halt the quarrel, or they can face their bully head on and keep fighting them until they beat the instigator. Unfortunately, bullies and victims are always on two opposite sides of the social ladder in school and hold different amounts of power, where one is always stronger than the other (Smith 281). If a bystander ever witnesses a fight between two of their classmates and it is clear that one is taking advantage of the other based

The question might ask where the line should be drawn between bullying and being mean. Some people believe that fooling around, or being mean would almost be the same thing as if one were bullying someone else. The concept of bullying and being mean could stand together, but are usually separated into two different categories. Whether it affects the victim a little or a lot, bullying has more effects and consequences that create major pain and torture in the mind of the innocent victim rather than just being mean. Bullying can be incorporated between being mean and fooling around, but at the same time, saying “Just kidding” versus intentionally hurting the victim is a major difference.
