Bullying can happen because of issues at home or lack of self-confidence. Many companies support the idea of confidence, but with bullying in the way, that message will not spread. Some adults believe that bullying is just “Kids being kids” but people around the world need to realize that this worldwide problem has gone way too far.Some people think that ignoring the problem will make it stop and people will forget about it.

There are bullies everywhere you go some noticeable and others not at all, you may not recognize a bully because they come in many different forms. The abusiveness of bullies’ is usually deliberate and not accidental. There are bullies at work, online, in the public and mostly school. So who is a bully?

Bullying is not an action we wish to see or experience. Girl-to-girl bullying is not wished upon as well, especially when you are apart of it. Since the beginning of my school education I seemed to become a magnet of bullies. In elementary school, I tried to be helpful towards others. I assisted with homework, cleaned up after activities, and I even did most of the work in group projects because the other kids groaned and complained about it. Unfortunately, due to my acts of being helpful I was called, "dog" by the girls who wore nicer clothes than I did. That nickname stuck around until 4th grade because of the fact I'd listen to anyone who'd ask for help. I was even called, "Heavy" as a supposed nickname for "Heaven" when it has been to call me fat. Around 5th grade,…

A lot people think being bullied is having someone threaten to take your lunch money or beating you up after school, that isn’t always the case. In some situations, bullying can go to the extreme.

Some people bully others because they believe that doing so will make themselves feel better, even though the outcome is usually the complete opposite. Maybe for a moment they feel amazing, but looking back on it, bullies probably feel really bad about what they did. These bullies, although they appear to not have any sad feeling themselves, probably have a lot of unwanted things going on in their lives (such as divorced parents, the loss of a loved one, the fact that they have no friends, ect.) so they put people down by either physically harming them, verbally abusing them, or by use of a rather recent source: the internet. When you hear of bullying, the first thing you imagine is probably someone getting beat up. This method of bullying is called physical bullying, which is basically any undesirable form of contact from one person to another. This can be as simple as just an unwanted friendly hug, but as in the…
The second scenario applying the seven rules to backstabbers is similar, but has its issues because unlike bullies, backstabbers are anonymous with their hostility, but if they are identified the same process pretty much still applies: like assessing the situation, look in the mirror, befriend, unhook, set expectations, get help, divorce and still provide guidelines for constructive responses to inappropriate behavior.…
