bullying problem
Hi!
Today, it's really sunny and comfortable weather outside! But, I would like to write about serious news in Japan.
Recently, two news of committed suicide by junior high school students has appeared.
In case of Nara Prefecture, suspected assault the bullying of a 13-year-old boy, was verbally abused daily by a dozen students, or more than half his class. Besides calling him "disgusting" and "stinky," they threw stones at him.
In early September, the boy started receiving text messages on his mobile phone three times a week that said he was "hated by everyone" and was "terrible."
Later that month, the boy stopped going to school after being told by a fellow student to stop attending school, and that he should "die."
(The Yomiuri Shimbun Oct.11)
When I heard about this news, I was really depressed. I have never experienced such bullying, so I can understand his feeling just objective, not realistic.
Also, I can't understand why bullying has carried out. We all have our personality, so it is general that everyone is not a same. But they could't understand that.
Bullying is difficult to solve by adults or school. But not to turn a blind eye to bullying is needed for the problem.
If you have a time, please read the book called "knife", written by Kiyoshi Shigematsu. It is the story about bullying, so it can help you to think about these problems.
Thank you for reading. c-ya! :)
