A bad bully is far worse than a lazy bystander because mean bully’s cause suicides, bullies cause/have low self-esteem, not to mention they suffer a large amount of punishment.

All families have problems but divorcing is one that most of the families have. In fact Freaks and geeks; Schweiber and Weir is a good example of families of America. The Weirs don’t have problems like Schweiber do. Neil Schweiber is the only child and Sam Weir is not, he has an older sister. But what I am trying to get at is that Sam has someone to talk to but Neil, on the other hand, does not. He is lucky he has friends that told him about his dad.

This interests me because, even though I have never been bullied, I have been around people who have been bullied and not know how to deal with it. At that time those people were involved in self-harm and even attempted suicide. I didn't know how to deal with them either, but they found out that they were really comfortable talking to the school counselor so that really helped them out a lot. Having to see them go through that makes me realize how important getting GPs involved in dealing with bullies. I would like to see GPs involved more in the school district that I

Man! Did you know that according to Source 2, “an estimated 1 in 5 students in the U.S. is either bullied or a bully?” I find these statistics mortifying.

Clearly bullies are the horrific guys here.

If someone is being bullied, the bystander shouldn’t just watch because there are several actions they could take to stand up for their friend or the stranger they may not even know.
