use superior strength or influence to intimidate (someone), typically to force him or her to do what one wants. However it still linger in my head, is it really one definition. Reflecting upon the few minutes of the "Bully'" video, actually provides a spotlight of the cruelty that some kids face; who express a different personality then your own, get belittled. It literally do not process to me, that the world we live in is still portraying discrimination. These young kids, as young as 9 years of age are putting someone down because of there appearance. After the struggle of equality, yet our generation is separating each other once again. When will the world CARE? ,this issue/problem are killing the future leaders. Parents should take responsibility for there child actions to a certain extend. Then again it is the child fault, everyone known's right from wrong. Specifically once everyone reach 12 years of age we choose our own friends, from there they can make you break you. The saying "Show me your friends, and I'll tell you who you are" literally is the truth. Although judgment of anyone is wrong, but face it that's reality, that's the world we live in. For anyone who take's part with a group of kids or adults putting someone down about themselves are not human.(my opinion). Everyone have feelings, and for anyone to say that could never be me are cold hearted. Words kill just as a gun. 1 in 12 teens have attempted suicide, for example take a graduating class of 122 students at least 10 of them have attempted to commit suicide based upon bullying.http://www.nydailynews.com/life-style/health/1-12-teens-attempted-suicide-report-article-1.1092622.
How bullying affect someone family? No one can truly know if you never experience a love one taking their life, only sympathies. The angry that builds up within of the question "why and how could it been stop" basically kills your sprit. What could someone possible say or do to push a person to that point, where they feel that there is no longer a reason to live. One's family is hurting by simple word's or actions that could have been prevented. Will that family move on to hurt someone else (bully) to put other's in there shoes? Those are questions I wonder is this the reason that bullying is still prevalent.
As we discussed, this is full of fabulous ideas. It is a little difficult to read though. I look forward to seeing how your writing develops!
