Most people assume that bullying happens exclusively in the school setting. Since this is where children and young people spend a good deal of their time, it is understandable that teachers should pay more responsibility. However, it's essential to remember that bullying can occur in other places as well. Individuals can be bullied in the home, possibly by an older sibling, or by a step-brother or sister. As I have noted above, prisons and other residential settings are also places where bullying is common. When thinking about bullying adults do need to keep in mind that it can occur anywhere, not just in school. I see your point. Parents need to take action too. Exactly. Parents can do an enormous amount to help, although sometimes it's difficult to be clear how to proceed. |
