What are your toughts on harrassement in school ?
I never been bullied or anything , but i've seen it happened .
And i wanted to see the people's tought on the subject , and if there 've been some people victim of it and if it had any long or short term consquences ?
What made me make this is also that french music video i've recently watched ,
Ther's some harsh stuff but the message is here , and i also wanted your toughts on the video ?
Personnaly it kinda made me regret not doing anything when it used to happen to one of my friends , i think why i didn't help him was pure cowardice , i didn't want to get involved,the bully as a big guy , and i tought the guy would harass me too if i did help my friend .

Things have seemed to change from my day. I mean bullies and the bullied have existed forever and well documented fatal retaliation has happened for decades as well. I don't know what changed where since social media, the amount of people able to overcome it has fallen. Is it that school and social media have become people's lives where now they have no way to escape it?
I was bullied in Junior High. I also fought back, getting my ass handed to me more often than not. I kept getting up. I didn't cry. I didn't go get help. Once I had an armchair thrown on me in Drama class(when the teacher was out), one of them jumped on it, cutting my head open. I got out, bleeding and swearing at them. I washed up and came back like it was nothing. A few days later I got into an altercation in the hallway with one and pushed him into a locker and we both got inschool suspensions(having to spend two days in 4x4 rooms alone. This was pretty much the end of it.
They live for the reaction. I didn't have issues after this really. That one kid whom led it, got his come-uppence too. He would always make fun of my handicapped sister as well. A couple months after she died, he was mysteriously thrown head first into a locker and required stitches. No one found out how or who.
I don't really understand myself how people can feel like it's so insurmountable to take their own lives. I'm a different breed though. I have my own issues I was born with that effect emotion. I did have zero problems with bullies in high school and stood up for people whom were bullied(very few really). I felt I did what I could.
I was likeable enough to not be a target for bullies. Only experienced some minor bullying in primary.
I've never really known anybody who has been bullied for long term. But when I was in high school, as soon as someone decided to start picking on someone else, they pretty much got dropped. My school didn't stand for that shit at all.
I got bullied in elementary school. It wasn't all that bad really, maybe it's just because I have a thick skull. Asshat broke my finger once, that's about it. I see bulling as nothing more than incompetence and denial of ones true feelings and insecurities, taking pride in the pain of others only ebbs the pain they feel.
Bullies in my high school? We don't stand for that crap. More than likely, a teacher won't be able to help because the student's would've already taken care of it. We take care of each other.
Did you go to school in a rural area? Because I did and interestingly, this was my experience too. I was never really bullied (expect in middle school which I handled myself), but I did get jumped once by some rednecks during Freshman year. Let's just say that when you beat down a disabled guy that most people like, bad things can happen.
