Bullying

Bullying  is the use of force or  coercion  to  abuse  or  intimidate  others. The behavior can be habitual and involve an imbalance of social or physical  power. It can include verbal  harassment  or  threat, physical  assault  or coercion and may be directed repeatedly towards particular victims, perhaps on grounds of  class ,  race ,  religion ,  gender ,  sexuality ,  appearance ,  behavior , or  ability. [2] [3]  If bullying is done by a group, it is called  mobbing. [4]  The victim of bullying is sometimes referred to as a "target".

Bullying can be defined in many different ways. The  UK  currently has no legal definition of bullying, [5]  while some  U.S.  states have laws against it. [6]  Bullying consists of three basic types of abuse –  emotional ,  verbal, and  physical. It typically involves subtle methods of coercion such as intimidation.

Form of bullying
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 or her bullying activities. Bullying in school and the workplace is also referred to as peer abuse.[7]  Mr Robert W. Fuller has analyzed bullying in the context of rankism.

A bullying culture can develop in any context in which human beings interact with each other. This includes school, family, the workplace, home, and neighborhoods. In a 2012 study of male adolescent football players, "the strongest predictor was the perception of whether the most influential male in a player's life would approve of the bullying behavior".[8]

Just as Mr Robert say, bullying may be in a context of rankism.

1) An example that had happened on a certain friend of the editor is that he used to go a famous school which rank the students based on their grade. ( Name of the School will not be named and let's just call the friend sam. ) Even though it's lucky to go a famous and high rank, it's a downpour for sam as he was one of those student who has the lowest rank out of the school. This ensrue him a place in the 'loser rank' and bullies started emerging from his class. Those bullies ( they have a high rank grade due to having good grades ) start calling him to buy their lunch, doing their homeworks and worse, they might beat him up to release their stress or using him to tell a joke. Sam's life went to a mess and his life at home are no different. Yes, you all guess it right! Internet! The bullies never let him off so they decided to cyber bully him. For a period of time, sam skipped school so as to avoid them. Yes. Sam have no friends since he started going to that school and also anyone who try to approach him or try to become his friend will be bulllied as well. Thus this bullying has started to become a form of sort of abusing. Don't worry, sam had gotten help to solve this problem, he also showed the bullies a thing or two as He started to study hard and gotten into 100th rank.

2) Example number two. The editor's other friend sister is a quiet yet pretty and cute girl. She has been called as goddess due to her beauty and kindness. but this give an disadvantage in school. (let's call her stella) As she was the school idol,no, the boys idol, she has been wooed by different kind of male students e.g. nerds, handsome boys, gangsters, players and worse, boys who had girlfriend. This lead to the dangerous 'girl's jealousy', stella was teamed up by a gang of girls who thought she was trying to seduce their boyfriends. They cornered her in a room when she was alone, pulling her beautiful hair, taking a scissors to cut it, threw milk on her face and kick her in the stomach. Almost in the day she ended up with injuries, fearing that that the next day might ended up the same, she, like sam , avoid school for peroid of time before gotten help.

3) the third kind of bullying is based on your popularity and the 'things' you like doing. well, the other editor and his cousin had gotten this kind of problem. well let's start with the other editor. the pther editor was a guy who like playing computer games and watching anime, your average teenage boy. however, his classmates prefer sports and studying (work and play hard type of people) Thus, they form into a group, which judged and laugh at people who refuse to do the same thing as them. the other editor did not want to force himself to do thingd that he does not like, thus the group would find a chance to embarrassed him.

Well anyway, there's a lot of types ofbullying in this world, so i'll update the page next time. Do inform me of any mistake or details.

Why bullies emerged?
<p style="line-height:19.1875px;font-family:sans-serif;"> Studies have shown that envy and resentment may be motives for bullying. Research on the  self-esteem  of bullies has produced equivocal results. While some bullies are  arrogant  and  narcissistic,   bullies can also use bullying as a tool to conceal  shame  or  anxiety  or to boost self-esteem: by demeaning others, the abuser feels empowered. Bullies may bully out of  jealousy  or because they themselves are bullied. Some have argued that a bully reflects the environment of his home, repeating the model he learned from his parents.

<p style="margin-top:0.4em;margin-bottom:0.5em;line-height:19.1875px;font-family:sans-serif;">Researchers have identified other risk factors such as depression<sup class="reference" id="cite_ref-28" style="line-height:1em;unicode-bidi:-webkit-isolate;">[28]  and personality disorders,as well as quickness to anger and use of force, addiction to aggressive behaviors, mistaking others' actions as hostile, concern with preserving self image, and engaging in obsessive or rigid actions. A combination of these factors may also be causes of this behavior. In one recent study of youth, a combination of antisocial traits and depression was found to be the best predictor of youth violence, whereas video game violence and television violence exposure were not predictive of these behaviors.

<p style="margin-top:0.4em;margin-bottom:0.5em;line-height:19.1875px;font-family:sans-serif;">According to some researchers, bullies may be inclined toward negativity and perform poorly academically. Dr. Cook says that "a typical bully has trouble resolving problems with others and also has trouble academically. He or she usually has negative attitudes and beliefs about others, feels negatively toward himself/herself, comes from a family environment characterized by conflict and poor parenting, perceives school as negative and is negatively influenced by peers".<sup class="reference" id="cite_ref-cook_20-1" style="line-height:1em;unicode-bidi:-webkit-isolate;">[20]

<p style="margin-top:0.4em;margin-bottom:0.5em;line-height:19.1875px;font-family:sans-serif;">Contrarily, some researchers have suggested that some bullies are "psychologically strongest" and have "high social standing" among their peers, while their victims are "emotionally distressed" and "socially marginalized". Other researchers also argued that a minority of the bullies, those who are not in turn bullied, "enjoy going to school, and are least likely to take days off sick".

<p style="margin-top:0.4em;margin-bottom:0.5em;line-height:19.1875px;font-family:sans-serif;">It is often suggested that bullying behavior has its origin in childhood. As a child who is inclined to act as a bully ages, his or her related behavior patterns may also become more sophisticated. Schoolyard pranks and "rough-housing" may develop into more subtle activities such as administrative end-runs, planned and orchestrated attempts at character assassination, or other less obvious, yet equally forceful forms of coercion.

<p style="margin-top:0.4em;margin-bottom:0.5em;line-height:19.1875px;font-family:sans-serif;">Research indicates that adults who bully have authoritarian personalities, combined with a strong need to control or dominate.It has also been suggested that a prejudicial view of subordinates can be a particularly strong risk factor.

<p style="margin-top:0.4em;margin-bottom:0.5em;line-height:19.1875px;font-family:sans-serif;">1) From the people around me, this is an example of why bullies appeared. like the researchers said, bullies might have suffered a personality disorder, might be from the environment or family he grew up in. This might cause the bully to feel he need to have control the things around him to satisfy himself ( what i heard from one of the bully himself.) He feel that he cannot depend on anyone except himself and if there's a need to change the thing around him , he need to do it himself whatever it takes. "No one understand me...there will never anyone there for me, even the world and my family has abadoned me...i need to do it myself whatever it takes" one of the important quotes that he remembered.

<p style="margin-top:0.4em;margin-bottom:0.5em;line-height:19.1875px;font-family:sans-serif;">2) The second type of bullies, who might be friends with the victim at first, but due to a certain event or incident, this lead to the bully using violence and his anger at the victim. The bully started to gather hatred at his victim to the fact he spread rumors and form a gang to bully or abuse the victim. However, when the victim do everything he demand, the bully might built up more anger and hatred. " That loser! Don't joke with me! bowing and apologise easily without trying to fight! Don't mess with me! How dare you think you'll be forgiven." the bully told me how he feel during the heated conflict with his friend, the victim . Athough this kind of bullies is not commonly seen, but researchers has confirm this is one of the rare reason as if the bully is not stopped, he might goes on to the point where he might think of killing the victim.

<p style="margin-top:0.4em;margin-bottom:0.5em;line-height:19.1875px;font-family:sans-serif;">3) The third kind of bullies, which might ascended from a rich family, might think that he/she is superior and no one is able to control her. Yes, the editor does not want to say this but the bully has good leadership. Since he/she is rich, there might be followers, thus he/she was always surrounded by their followers. People would normally avoid fighting with them as, either you get bullied by the followers or the rich family hired lawyers to punish your action and get the school to their side. they are also known as the most destestable kind of bullies.

<p style="margin-top:0.4em;margin-bottom:0.5em;line-height:19.1875px;font-family:sans-serif;">4) The fourth kind of bullies, also the attention seeker type, started to bully verbally at the victim, in order to gain attention and impress the classmates. Yes, the editor's female friend experience firsthand. let's name her joyce. joyce has a female classmate who is an retarded brat who want to get popular by this method, It works when she start bullying joyce and she get popular easily. Even though female classmates start to follow her, the other classmate find her annoying and childish. As joyce is a reckless yet enegetic type of a person, she does not really care but one day she finally had it , she confront the bully during the end of class which cause the bully to suffer a defeat, thus embarrassing herself and ended her life as a bully when she became the victim. So readers please tell your children, that never ever become this kind of bullies , they will ended up being the victim.

<p style="margin-top:0.4em;margin-bottom:0.5em;line-height:19.1875px;font-family:sans-serif;">5) The average kind of bullies, who think ( Male ) is superior due to muscles and size and ( Female ) due to Beauty. this kind of bullies normally emerged in middle and secondary school. They normally pick the one that is opposite of themsleves as victim. their purpose is normally tell the victim that they have to stay in their place or rank and that they wanted to beat it to them that they are more superior than you.
