Bullying is a purposeful display of aggression and authority aimed at diminishing others.
Its negative impact extends not only to the victim but also to the overall school atmosphere; victims often become withdrawn, making participation in class challenging.
Physical bullying can lead to serious injuries, while verbal bullying can result in enduring emotional and psychological hardships for the victim.
Furthermore, it may lead to students dropping out of school and developing various insecurities, including diminished self-esteem and confidence, which hinder their ability to engage in community life.
Ultimately, bullying creates an unfavorable environment for teaching, learning, and social interactions among peers.
We must strive to enhance the safety of our schools by actively preventing and addressing all forms of bullying.
It is essential to foster an environment where children are encouraged to be friendly and inclusive towards their peers, regardless of differences.
