BULLYING THE WORLD WIDE CRISIS

Sarah Williams

The issue

Everyone gets bullied. Whether you’re in Kindergarten or in the work space. But lately it’s been getting too out of hand.

How it starts

People can find anything to pick at just to make you squirm like your clothes, hair, make-up or how you live your life.

People who are suspected of being gay, lesbian, or anything with liking the same sex are getting bullied more in the 2010 times because of prop 8.

Bullying over the ages If you lived in the 1960’s

or twentieth century you’d

think of bullying as that

guy in the lunch room

that threatens to beat you

up for your lunch money

because not that many

people bullied others.

2009: Issues with bullying have started because of people not respecting privacy and personal issues like your sex and who you are. And because of technology bullies have gotten more creative.

How you know when you’re being bullied Bullying can come in all sorts of forms

from: Nasty messages Mean comments Being excluded from a group Not being talked to Sexual assults Being physically harmed

When you see someone getting bullied what do you do? Most people who see

someone else get

bullied stand by and

watch or cheer the bully

on, when what they should

be doing is stepping in

and stopping it.

Why do people react this way?

People are afraid if they intervene they will casted out and be bullied too.

The product of bullying

When someone has been bullied

They lose self esteem Lose pride Feel alone

Some people Go into depression Stop going to work/ school Even physically inflict pain

What you can do

Get in between the bully and the person getting hurt

Befriend the person getting hurt DON’T BE THE BULLY
