Violence around us:Schools

A common environment influences kids to use violence is school.
A lot of weak and very sensible students become afraid of their peers and they are likely to become victims. Bullies intimidate the pupils and situations are not reported to an adult/teacher/friend because of some unpleasant consequences. A lot of weak and very sensible students become afraid of them and likely one of their mocked victims. If I have to name common violence types in schools I'd say intimidation, physical, verbal ,emotional aggression. The shy children are so called ''losers’ by others because they don't dare/have the courage to face the bullies.
To start with, these bullies usually intimidate the pupils, so a great percentage of them refuse to confess the problems to an adult/teacher/friend. Mainly because they're very afraid of being even more mocked than usual by their ,,hunters''.
However these jerks may have developed their fierce behavior from similar bullying that had been through. Namely the school/college, where they were influenced by other tormenters, whom they'd chosen to admire.
Icing the cake, those easily affected may ,,wear this make-up'' all their life, which may cause them to get in trouble with the law or worse.
Of course these behavior problems can be solved  through counseling  with a psychologist. In addition to this, these kids will be taking part in communication/interactive games along other classmates, from which they'll learn what teamwork stands for. Along years they'll learn to respect the people around them and be respected in return.
To finally end it, a sensible child can be easily influenced to becoming like of his aggressors, but also the weak prey for those hooligans. Parents/teachers should take the opportunity to discuss more frequently with them about their issues and try to make them have more confidence.
