    “School Bullies” is the most common problem which is going around the world. As we all knows how its feel when someone bullies you and you are totally new for facing it. From my personal experience, I can share how I feel when I came USA first time. I didn’t able to speak English and didn’t even understand others. At my first day of school I hide my tears because I did not want to give any one trouble. One boy from my class start to bullied me but I was not understanding. One girl in my class able to speak in my language she explained everything to me and tell me to tell the teacher. But I was scared because I knew if I say something he will do more. That why I start to ignore him and after few days he stop bullies. It was not that easy for me but I face it.

    In the article “School Bullies,” the author states that bullying has become a serious problem throughout the society. One of the problem is that a 14 year old boy dies after being pushed down the stairs by a classmate. Another problem is that parents have send their children to self-defense so they will not become attacked by other kids in the same school. According to the professor in Bergen University, he claims that in addition to the survey, only 15% of the students were either bullies or victims. Furthermore, many students who has been attacked by others are being worry and becoming less depended on themselves. There are reasons that some bullies will only pick on others. They won’t bother to bully the people who have a higher background and kids that are stronger than them (picking on weak kids). However, there are more boys who are involved in bulling than girls. The fact that Dr. Olweus had mention about “Too little love and care in childhood and too much freedom are conditions that strongly contribute to the development of bullies”. This caused the them to think that everything they do is right to them. In order to solve the problem of bullying, the school have to take full responsibility for developing programs about serious bullying and to play close attentions to the student’s behavior.
