From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Bullying is detrimental to students’ well-being and development.[1] Bullying is a form of aggressive behavior manifested by the use of force or coercion to affect others, particularly when the behavior is habitual and involves an imbalance of power. It can include verbal harassment, physical assault or coercion and may be directed repeatedly towards particular victims, perhaps on grounds of race, religion, gender, sexuality, or ability.[2][3] The "imbalance of power" may be social power and/or physical power. The victim of bullying is sometimes referred to as a "target". Bullying consists of three basic types of abuse – emotional, verbal, and physical. It typically involves subtle methods of coercion such as intimidation. Bullying can be defined in many different ways. The UK currently has no legal definition of bullying,[4] while some U.S. states have laws against it.[5] Bullying ranges from simple one-on-one bullying to more complex bullying in which the bully may have one or more 'lieutenants' who may seem to be willing to assist the primary bully in his bullying activities. Bullying in school and the workplace is also referred to as peer abuse.[6] Robert W. Fuller has analyzed bullying in the context of rankism. Bullying can occur in any context in which human beings interact with each other. This includes school, church, family, the workplace, home, and neighborhoods. It is even a common push factor in migration. Bullying can exist between social groups, social classes, and even between countries (see jingoism). In fact, on an international scale, perceived or real imbalances of power between nations, in both economic systems and in treaty systems, are often cited as some of the primary causes of both World War I and World War II.[7][8] Stop bullying now say it with T-shirts from Gungha Designs

Stop Bullying
Bullying has been existence since the beginning of time, its intent is purely to demean and degrade the victim whilst making the perpetrators feel empowered by their actions, as a modern society we can no longer tolerate Bullying.
Bullying is rampant in every aspect of our lives, in schools, on the street, in the workplace and sadly in many homes, a social problem that exist worldwide.
Bullying is not a trait we are born with, it is in fact learned, taught by the very people children should be looking up to for guidance, those people are indeed their parents.
Lets face reality, what children learn and are taught by their parents is what shapes their future, children whom are taught to be aggressive or witness aggression in their family homes are the most likely to become bullies.
A child growing up in an environment of bullying and aggression will from an early age engage in bullying and aggressive behaviour not only in their homes but will carry this behaviour into their school years often these children will be taught by parents as to how to deal with complaints against their behaviour, parents whom themselves are systemic bullies.
Many aspects of bullying can be attributed to criminal behaviour, families that have a long history of criminal behaviour, teach and pro-actively promote this behaviour in their children, whom inevitably turn to crime as a means.
We as a community are entitled to be free of bullies, there can be no justification for their behaviour.
In recent times and unfortunately with the abuse of social media we have seen a rise in bullying which sadly has led to victims committing suicide, as a community this is unacceptable, one suicide is one too many, the life that has been taken by a bully cannot be justified and therefore the bully must pay the ultimate penalty and penalty being life never to be released.
