All About Bullying
-
My bestfriends have a child that is a huge bully. I can tell you they denied it for probably 2 years. Fought every accusation and story or anything bad said about the kid.
Finally when the kid was 11 or 12 they dropped him off at a relative’s house to hang out with the cousins for the day. They left, but had to return about 10 minutes later to pick something up. They saw him slapping one of the other kids and saying how their parents didn’t love them and were trying to sell them. That was one of the more minor things the kid had been accused of doing. They are pretty sure he shoved another kid down and broke his arm.
They apologized to everyone the kid had ever been around. Both for the kid’s behavior and for them being stupid and denying it. As far as punishing the kid, they took everything except the dresser and bed out of the kids room making it almost like a jail cell. That was over a year ago and he still just has the bed and dresser. He’s gotten much nicer, but it’s hard to tell if it’s a act or not. -

Well... at least the parents realised it for themselves that the kid is a bully and punished him for it. It's a blessing.

Does you best friend know why his kid wanted to use violence to assault other people? Did the kid explain why he did so?

Hello I understand that bullying and cyberbullying is a sensitive topic. I am currently helping out with a research study by NUS called Exploring the Mechanism of Cyberbullying in Singapore: A Multi-Pronged Approach. I need help to find interviewees for this research study. I am currently looking for children aged 9-16 with cyberbullying experiences (cyberbully ,victim or witness to a cyberbullying incident). It will be an audio recorded interview and participants will be reimbursed $50 for their help. ***We are only looking for Singaporean/Singaporean PRs. Everything will definitely be kept confidential. Please fill up this form below if you are interested! I would also appreciate it if you were to spread it around!

Hmm i would like to share my boy experience that some bully incidents.
1. When he was p1 , he got slapped by a p3 student. He went to school quite early that day & the p3 slapped him because my boy don’t want play with him. After that , we teach him to stay in canteen where there will be more people & ensure know where to get help when things happen.
2. When he was p3 & p4
In between period, one of the classmates pushed him & threw his school bag to dustbin outside classroom. Keep finding trouble with my boy during PE lesson , push him/ kick him.
One day he pushed back & everything stop
3. Around p5
He always the outcast & doesn’t know how to make friend . Finally has a friend to go recess to , he was very happy . Till one day , this friend choose to be with another popular group of friends & told them not to play my boy.
So we taught him about choice- don’t have to only go back to that friend , learn to make friends with others.
It was quite hard as his confidence was affected and angry with himself . Throughout the years , when things happened , we go through solutions with him & definitely teachers support as well.
Maybe his case is not that serious , but with support & talking through does make him better handling the situation. Honestly, not all teachers can help. But going through the situation & possible solutions does help my boy .
Now last year of his pri Sch, he doing well in term of social. -

Oh dear, I couldn't agree more with you! Proper upbringing is so important, and it's disheartening to hear about parents who don't take bullying seriously. Kids learn so much from us, don't they? And you're absolutely right, teachers and principals should definitely step in too. It's not just \"playing around\" when it hurts other kids. Let's hope things change for the better and our little ones grow up kind and caring. Take care, dear! 💕
I totally agree fully that parents must play a big role in the proper upbringing of the kids. I was so shocked when a close friend of mine while chatting told me that she is ok as long as her boy is not the victim..she does not mind her kids going around bullying other kids..and mind u, her elder boy is only 35 mths now and he likes to hit others (his mummy is actually proud that her kid is not a softie!!). What a twisted mentality!! Are all the new-age parents like that nowadays??
:?
Teachers and principals have to play a part too! There was once in my kids kindy where there is a big bully in my son's class, with a very cute looking face..many kids were \"bullied\" by him before..so when I told the person-in charge of the kindy about this boy, she just brushed it off by saying \"Oh,he's actually a very lovable boy..just playing around\". Even teachers/principals are treating these as trivial matters, no wonder the bullies will carry on their \"evil ways\" till teenage yrs! -
Yes...proper upbringing sets the foundation for our kids future and addressing bullying is important. It is a team effort involving parents, teachers, and school authorities. Let's wish a brighter and kinder future for our little ones lah.

Hurt people go around hurting other people. It may be a way to release pent up tensions in order to feel better. We should teach our kids to protect themselves against bullies, we should also teach them this psychology behind bullies, so that our kids can have some compassions inside them when dealing with bullies , to break the vicious cycle in themselves and others. For the bullies the first step is to recognise any problem they have within. With recognition, compassion for oneself can then grow. Once they have compassion for themselves, compassions for others are then possible
