When i was at primary school i used get bullied, i was constantly name called and called a "loner",because i was a little slow everyone used to call me "dumb". I used to get physically abused and i remember i stopped eating for a couple of days, i was scared to go to school because i was worried about what i will have to go through.
From childhood experience bullying can be life-threatening and one thing i have learnt is not to suffer in silence. Now i used to keep this to myself i was frightened that if i had told anyone i would get hurt from bullies. However, my mum noticed one morning that i'd skipped breakfast and lunch so she did further investigation and so she found out. Why should someone stop going to school,ruin their education just because of a bully?? why should an individual suffer in silence??? Tell someone about it and get it sorted, the sooner the better!
From research it has been said that bullying "could bring a person's self-esteem down, it could lead to suicide, and the person who is being bullied have too much pressure on them".
Have a look at this website it has a brilliant video on bullying, indeed very interesting! http://www.childline.org.uk/Explore/Bullying/Pages/Bullying.aspx
