Causes of Bullying

Causes of Bullying

• Lack of kindness and understanding:

  • Kids who verbally abuse others are unconcerned about the sufferings of everyone else.

• Groups of peers:

  • The influence of social clusters can also play a significant role in harassment.

• The family provides insufficient love and attention and emotional security.

Ways of Resolving Bullying

• The best way to stop bullying is simply encouraging children to always talk to a trusted adult when they are assaulted.

  • This practice would be the best way to stop bullying because when the victims speak to adults, they get comforted, supported, and advised if they cannot solve the problem themselves.

• If children are encouraged to report whenever harassment happens, it makes them feel more secure when someone stands up for them.

  • According to the International Journal of Emerging Trends in Engineering and Development by Durga and Sasikiran, it is therefore essential to stand up to children who bully others (27). To do the above, one can make good use of humor such as asking the bullies to stop, or by confidently threatening the perpetrator.

  • To emphasize threatening bullies, an adult can always talk about what would probably happen to bullies who do not act when asked to stop.

• In addition, children should constantly be reminded that it is advisable always to stay safe and stay near grownups or groups of other children.
