I was bullied and physically assaulted from year 4 to 6 my primary school years were some of the worst years of my life school is ment to be a safe space but for 1000s of students this is not case schools dont support the kids that are being bullied they bury their heads in the sand or make excuses how many kids are going to lose their life or be traumatised before the government wakes up and does something stop blaming the child that's being bullied and protect our children mental health
Natasha-lee supported: Stop Bullying In SchoolsEpilepsy is a cruel condition that the person has no control over. My brother was fired from his job because he had several seizures and it ripped his world apart. Some people choose to stay on pip benefits for their condition but others long for a normal life of studying and working. To treat these people like it’s their fault is disgraceful. There is no control over these seizures even through medication, ear plugs Special glasses etc. Through no fault of his own this man is being discriminated against and there needs to be more understanding and help around this subject.
Rhoda supported: DENIED: My University’s Refusal to Refund Tuition After Epilepsy Relapses.When I was still in primary school, I knew firsthand what it was like to be bullied, and just what some young children were capable of. In fact, bullies can be cunning, ruthless, deceitful, brazen and, even worse, very charming and two-faced. Now that I am in my later middle years, it is easy for me to understand that, unlike most normal adults, some children and teenagers seem to have a form of revenge that knows no limits, precisely because they do not have a fully developed thinking brain and a conscience that enable them to control volatile emotions, accurately assess the consequences of their actions, and maintain a satisfactory standard of behaviour in the community. Furthermore, whether a bully grew up in an abusive family environment or, to the other extreme, was pampered from an early age, is not a valid excuse for violating the safety of another fellow human being. After all, every bully is really a coward; otherwise, why would he or she target someone who is more vulnerable or defenceless? This is why every school teacher has the fundamental responsibility to make sure that every student feels safe; otherwise, that particular teacher would be sending the wrong message that "survival of the fittest" is the only "rule" that one has to live by. For God's sake, this is the twenty-first century!
