Bullying - Page 3

Parents today launched a campaign to make schools legally responsible for eliminating bullying.

The parents' campaigning group Action on Rights for Children (Arch) said government guidelines did not go far enough in stamping out the "Lord of the Flies" culture in schools.

All schools are required to have an anti-bullying charter and have been sent new guidance informing them they are now legally responsible for children's welfare.

My friend(shes a girl) was having problems at school cause she offended one of the jocks by not sleeping with him so he and his friends spread rumors, tripped her, threw stuff and every other bad thing you could possibly do. They even had there g/fs do it to her so one day I had to confront the jock. Turns out hes a pussy and after 1 hit to the face his eyes were watering and he gave up. Kids like this are weak and because there weak and know it they like to act all big and bad and make others look bad to make themselves feel good which is sad.

Yes, she's probably done the same thing to other people. She seems to give no hint at her feeling sorry for what she did to other people, just that she is now the target of these attacks. I've been at the centre of some pretty harsh "bullying" and all I can think is that she only cares now, because it happened to her
Karma is payed back exponentially sometimes.

But it was no laughing matter when they viciously turned on her, beating her so badly she spent almost a week in hospital.
From then on, the Essex schoolgirl found herself the target of a campaign of hate, suffering dozens of threatening phone calls each night and a non-stop barrage of abusive text messages.
Rebecca's life at the Aveley School in Thurrock turned into a living hell. Struggling to cop, she wrote about her terror and misery in a diary - and here we publish vivid excerpts from it on day two of the daily mirror's anti bulling campaign, Bulling: You Can Stop It.
Gangs of up to 30 kids wold gather outside the house Rebecca, now 14 shares with her mother and two younger sisters and scream foul abuse. Her tormentors even kept up their cruel campaign on Christmas Day.
They had turned on her after she was accused of starting a rumour that one of the biggest bullies in the gang had slept with her boyfriend.
"To this day I swear I never said that," says Rebecca. "But when I was walking out of school that afternoon she came up behind me with two other girls, pulled me to the floor and started kicking me in the stomach.
"The other girls took my bag, took money out of it, and took my phone. It was literally 10ft outside school. Adults were parked outside - there were loads and loads of peple standing around and no one did anything. I managed to get up and because they thought I was going to fight back two of them pushed me through a big 6ft fence into a back garden, knocking the fence down. I was lying in the garden and they kept kicking me in the face and stomach. "

Then I'd dump them on their front porch and spit on their parents for fucking up so hard and producing wastes of space like their kids.

you would be an awesome mother

I interpret this as the following: she was a bitch to other students. They turned on her, meaning the inner group, which led to a meltdown as the former abused students got revenge.

It would really help if the catalyst that caused the group to turn on her was revealed.

I'm really not a fan of abuser's rights. The fact of the matter is, she really started it. She wasn't thinking of the future, nor wasn't exactly thinking of compassion, when she was bullying all those other kids. The tables turn. Now, I'm not going to make a judgement, as I don't know what she did to the other kids, and I'm not sure what slag is. I'm pretty sure it's a product used in/produced as waste of steelmaking, at least over here.

So, she started it. But is the response correct?

This generation has lost it when it comes to bullying. Columbine (unlike Sens. Schumer and Hillary will tell you, assault weapons didn't cause it) was caused by bullying- these two screwed up kids simply couldn't take it anymore. She obviously didn't realize what damage she was doing to the other kids.

The other kids simply went crazy on her. Again, here is where I need more info to decide if she or the kids are right: how many did she abuse, and how many were affected?

If she abused 30 kids, and the close friends total bumped up those offended to around 90, well, she deserved it.

If she abused around 5 kids, total, the rest are bandwagon-jumping idiots who deserve to be locked up.

Additonally I critcize the bobbies and onlookers for not taking action.

Nobody is innocent, everybody is guilty.

If I were present at that scene where she first got beaten up, I would have totally interjected. I cant stand seeing people getting gang beat, or beaten at all.

AztecWarrior · 2004-09-14, 09:08 PM

What is slag? (And not the substance involved in steelmaking, unless they are calling her that. Which is really weak.)

Triggar · 2004-09-14, 09:10 PM

Slut, basically.

AztecWarrior · 2004-09-14, 09:15 PM

Does NOT equal
