Bulling at School

            When most people think of bullying they think of the big kid in the class, at school, trying to steal the smaller kids lunch or lunch money.  Bullying is extremely popular in school no matter what age level.  Children are first introduced to early stages of bullying when they first start school.  The act of bullying can affect the students’ ability to pay attention in class and learn in a negative way.  Also, it can endanger the students emotional as well as physical safety at school.  Prevention for bullying is the best possible way to stop it before it can even happen which may be easier said than done.  School staff is usually the ones a student should talk first about bullying at school because they are the adults who are actually around when the bullying takes place.  A teacher or even counselor should always be available to talk to a student who has fallen victim due to bullying.  Also, another person to talk to right away about bullying is a parent or guardian of the student, someone who they live with who will be able to help them out in a terrible situation such as being bullied at school by a fellow classmate.  It is extremely important for people to spread awareness about bullying and how dangerous it can actually become.  Schools should take part in creating rules at school strictly against bullying and really enforce them.  Some ways that schools can add in bullying prevention into schoolwork is by building material going along with bully prevention into school activities and also curriculum.
