Bullying is when people repeatedly and intentionally use words or

actions against someone or a group of people to cause distress


and risk to their well being. Bullying can also be the cause of a
student to be absent minded that will affect his or her academic
performance which will lead to more problems.

There are four main types of bullying, first is Physical bullying, it


Includes hitting, kicking, shoving, spitting, beating up, stealing or
damaging property. Second is, Verbal bullying it is when someone
uses words to hurt, harass, or scare another person. Verbal
bullying leaves targets feeling ashamed, humiliated, or even afraid.
Examples are, teasing, name calling, insulting, and threatening.
Following is Indirect bullying; this happens when stories or rumors
about a person are spread around and excluding others from the
group. Last is Cyber Bullying, this type of bullying happens online or
through text messages or emails, an example is when an account on
social media called you out with an insult.

If you are being targeted by a bully, consult a teacher or the guidance


counselor about this issue, to help you and to help those who we call
"bullies". But why do bullies bully? There are different reasons why
people do this kind of things, including: wanting to dominate others
and improve their social status. having low self-esteem and
wanting to feel better about themselves. having a lack of remorse or
failing to recognize their behavior as a problem.

Sometimes we turn a blind eye to this kind of situation especially


when the bully is our friend or we are the bully ourselves, but thinking
about it carefully bullying only results to further mental health issues
and we are only pushing ourselves and others to the verge of danger.
It is not too late to change for the better version of us and stop putting
others health into risks.
Thank you.
