According to the American Psychological Association, “Bullying is a form of aggressive behavior in which someone intentionally and repeatedly causes another person injury or discomfort. Bullying can take the form of physical contact, words or more subtle actions” (Bullying, 2013). People bully each other for several reasons and there are different outcomes that are a result of those reasons. People can be bullied physically, emotionally, or verbally. Bullying can take place at school or online. Bullying should be a considered a crime, but kids get away with it all the time; furthermore prevention can be used in order to keep kids safe from bullying.

Walking down the school hall to the next class, the bully appears before his prey. He stands before his soon to be victims as if he is two feet taller and ten times stronger. His victims attempt to ignore him, but he stops them and puts his face in front of theirs to make sure his presence is known. He then abruptly decides to save his senseless punishment for another day as he passes by with a slight shoulder nudge. In today’s high schools, the majority of bullying incidents occur in this fashion. A bully finds the weakest kids and targets them. Freaks and Geeks, a television show, demonstrates these specific bullying instances and their effect on the character Bill Haverchuck. The pain bullying causes

(Topic Sentence) Bullying is a serious problem that should not be taken lightly. (Background Info) Jamie Nabozny was a boy who was constantly harassed at Ashland Middle and High school for being gay. One day, his mother called the office and the principal just ignored Jamie’s bullying problem. The bullying escalated and Jamie received no help from his school. For example, Nabozny even tried to commit suicide and was hospitalized while the school did nothing to help. The bullies went so far as to beat him up and threaten to kill him if he told anybody.

Most kids say that they don’t see bullying around school. In just Minnesota alone there is talk about bullying and how to prevent it. Sen. Franken states, “Nine out of 10 LGBT kids are harassed or bullied in school. One-third report having skipped school in the last month because they felt unsafe” (Shah 14). Kids should not feel unsafe to go to school. School is supposed to be a safe place to go and if someone needs help there are supposed to be people there to guide them. Franken adds, “But the sad fact is that our federal laws are failing” (Shah 14). Laws have been made to try to stop bullying, but bullying continues to exist. This shows how out of control bullying is becoming.

There once was three little Nerds, who were homeschooled all their lives. Only one Nerd would actually pay attention while the others were would not pay attention. So one day Mother Alex sent The Three Little Nerds to a public school.

As of today, I've attended four different schools. In elementary school, I was constantly bullied for being Asian. Peers would make fun of my eyes for being "too big" for an Asian, asked inappropriate questions regarding if I ate a certain domesticated animal, or talk to me as if I couldn't understand English. To overcome the bullying, I became someone who I wasn't. I was not myself and I hated it. I had to be this other person just so people did not bother me. I started to become the bully, changed what I ate, how I dressed and started to cover up my insecurities. I use to put my hair in ponytails or in a bun then leaving it down because I was made fun of my buddha shaped ears. I didn't want to speak to my family because they all had a specific

That they are bully They hated her pale snow face, her waiting silence, her thinness, and her possible future.

SLAM! I watched Arnold get slammed into a locker by Steve. I didn’t know what to do. This was a common thing that happened every day. I decided I should tell a teacher. We were learning about algebra, so I had to wait for math to end so I could tell Mr. Willmon what Steve is doing. I thought it will be a piece of cake, but as the class went on, the more I thought about getting bullied myself by Steve. The bell rang and Arnold scurried out of the classroom.

The commotion was as deafening as ever in the 6th grade hallway at 8:00 a.m.! The bell to leave for 1st period rings in 5 minutes, just enough time to gossip with my friends. As I approached the area where my best friends Addilyn and Kelley were sitting, everyone started to quiet down. I got chills and sooner or later, we would be able to hear crickets chirping. I quickly sat down and took a quick glance around. I noticed that the bullies from 8th grade were sprinting down the hallway. One of them, Jace, had a cautious look on his face. Another one, Chase, couldn’t stop laughing. Jace and Chase were twin brothers who had totally different personality’s.

I needed to get to class quickly but, in the hallway it was like a sea full of sharks. Everyone was pushing and shoving their way through the crowd. I tried to do the same but, I was not strong enough to do so. Then I thought what if I became the bully then people would move out if the way for me.

I hear the door slam. Then pounding, as if someone is running up the stairs. I can smell my mom baking cookies in the oven. They smell delicious. My friends, Melody, Hailey, Madison, and Elizabeth and I are all sitting around the kitchen table. I can hear the murmur of my friends discussing their science homework. My mom hands me a cookie and I can taste the sweet chocolate chips that hit my tongue. Melody is a kind and she’s pretty quiet but she still is loud on the inside. Hailey is just 100% quiet but she speaks occasionally now and then. Madison is similar to Hailey. She is very calm and wants to help everybody. Elizabeth is really nice and she is the problem fixer. She can fix any problem the world throws out at her. My sister

Bullying has become an increasingly widespread social phenomenon. It is defined as a way of seeing aggressive behavior occur within someone that intentionally and repeatedly causes another person injury or discomfort. Bullying may take place in the form of physical contact, verbal use, or even psychologically. There is a major difference in bullying and normal conflict between people. It does not only occur in children, but also in adolescence. Zielinski (2014) suggests that the effects of bullying in childhood can last a lifetime, both for the child who’s bullied and their tormenter. Harassment falls into the same category and effects individuals in similar ways to those of bullying. Girdwain (2016) explains several factors that constitute bullying in old age. This paper examines Zielinski (2014) and Girdwain (2016) relation to other research articles to show the brutal side of bullying and how to fully understand the effects of it on children adolescents even the elderly.

As I was walking the campus of my high school before school, I was pretty much left alone by the other students. I entered the math building to go to my first class and was inundated by a flood of people meandering about. As I attempted to make my way through the crowd, they parted before me, providing unobstructed room to pass. I looked at the faces of hundreds of students as each of them avoided making eye contact, trying not to draw attention to themselves. The one person who looked me in the eye, quickly looked away, but it was too late; I had found my next victim. He was a half-back on the football team, weighing about 180 pounds and was over 6’ tall. None of this mattered to me; nobody could beat me in a fight, I have been doing this
