      Do not condemn parents who are trying to do their very best to discipline and teach their children right conduct. Most children/ teens are accountable to their "own actions" children are critical thinkers at school age so they surely know what's right from wrong. This generation as well provide alot of youtube videos to know what should right thing to do. So, YOU shouldn't 100% blame to parents.
      Parents can only guide their children but the action will be the child's choice and that child should be accountable with those choices.

      Some parent's do, you try to teach your kid to be nice, have manners, be respectful and send them to a school like this where they're chewed up and spit out and not only by students as we heard in this video. Public school placement isn't for every single student that walks through the door, it's not a one size fits all. If the student is a behavioral problem, or has needs that can't be met in the public school they need a more appropriate placement. If they're a danger to themselves or others they don't belong in a public school.

      I don't think you know what accountable means.
      Also, I've seen the way my children behave after having good teachers. It's a shame that good preschools are so hard to get into.
      Also schools these days have kids watch TV instead of playing checkers or blocks. Kids never learn to play and never learn empathy for each other.
      It's TV and computer at school and TV and computer at home. Idiocracy (the movie) is coming true.

      The only way harsh bully and harassment can immediately end is by charging school staff and faculties for carelessly ignoring students when they are bullied.
      However, we live in a society, so making campus safe for students is not in the government or school priority. The priority is making money, which is why they haven't solved bully or harassment in schools for all these years/decades (that just don't make money).

      Been 30 years for me, and it's been since school became a mandate by the government. Which precedes me by a good 70ish years. There's a whole genre of shows and movies based on this, also preceding Mean Girls. John Hughes made tons of money off of this model in the 80's. You can also see reflections of this in Stranger Things. Because it also affected us, as genexers and millenials, and we tried and many of us are STILL TRYING. But they didn't listen to us either. And any attempts school districts make, are lukewarm, because we have made school boards political. My heart breaks for Daniella and everyone else going through this.

    I attended 34 schools in my early years being exposed to every bully in every school as the "new kid." What the bullies didn't know is that I had the experience of hundreds of fights in self defense and became a consummate expert at fighting.
    Single handedly, I cleared school after school after school of bullies. They knew if I caught them bullying someone, they'd have to pay the piper. I bullied the bullies and was brutal at it. The other kids adored me. The bullies, not so much. The teachers and staff remained quiet. They apparently liked my ability to do what they couldn't, legally.
    Today however, schools shouldn't have to rely on the small chance a bully destroyer might someday come to their school. They should have by now fixed this issue themselves. It's past time to take action.
    Bullies need to be charged criminally so they learn a valuable lesson in life before they become adult bullies which are then defined as criminals.

    I’m a former public school teacher and principal. The middle school where I was principal was a fairly tough place. When I arrived there was at least one fight every day, some days as many as 7 or 8. One of the reasons that students weren’t afraid to fight in school was because the consequences were a slap on the wrist. 3-5 days at home suspension was what the code of conduct instructed. I immediately joined up with two other principals and we totally ripped up the code of conduct and developed a new one. A point system that was much like points on a drivers license for traffic infractions. Each violation of the code of conduct has a specific number of points associated with it. As students accumulated points the at home suspension got longer and longer. The big one was that a fight was an automatic 10 points and a 30 day at home suspension. That was was 30 school days, not 30 calendar days. So a fighting suspension on average last about 6 weeks. If it was near the holiday season, Thanksgiving through Christmas, the suspension could last as long as 8 weeks. At first the students didn’t think we were serious. They found out after the first fight which took only 2 days that we wouldn’t back down from the 30 day suspension for fighting. After that I went from averaging at least one fight per day to one fight every 4-6 weeks which was a huge change. We also implemented a self defense rule where if a student was trying to start a fight they both had the option of walking away. But if one student trapped the other in a physical location where they were prevented from walking away they were allowed to defend themselves without consequences. The aggressor still got 30 days. Also if a student were jumped, surprise attacked and prevented from walking away only the aggressor was suspended. It made a huge difference in the culture of the school and curbing the violence.

    @teacherspetism ปีที่แล้ว +3

    A lot of what is happening is systemic…dysfunctional homes, lack of community, too much focus on testing, and not enough focus on mental health efforts in all schools. As a high school teacher, I can tell you that there are way too many fights happening at school. In terms of bullying, there needs to be more people on their feet. We’re catching some of it, but the more hidden, subtle forms are hard to detect until it’s too late. We all need to get involved all day every day. Showing up at a school board meeting with this type of energy is applaudable, but it doesn’t affect lasting change.

They didn’t want to eat anything I brought they didn’t wanna sit near me or be my partners or whatever and just them saying of things like that by people who weren’t my friends of course, it was hard. But it’s nothing like the kids today have to deal with because that was 1993 and 1994.

    ⚠️PLEASE PIN THIS SO EVERYONE CAN SEE IT, ALSO READ THIS ITS IMPORTANT ⚠️
    Last week. At my school. A girl named Virginia. She was bullied a lot, for having depression, and she dyed her hair a lot. She got bullied for many reasons. Last Thursday, we got a school email saying Virginia had committed suicide, because of bullying. Everyone that knew her broke down in tears. We all felt so bad for her parents, family, and close friends. Virginia was a sweet girl, she hid her depression. And put a smile on her face. I just wanted to let people know bullying doesn’t just change people. It can also hurt them. Mentally, and physically. My best friend thought about committing suicide once. It was heart breaking. So please don’t bully, even if it was just a joke. A joke can go a long way, like committing suicide. Bullying, is one of the worse things that can happen to a person. It can hurt them mentally. For most people, it’s physically. Half the people that have committed suicide is from bullying. And if you someone who bullies, or makes offensive jokes even thought you don’t mean it to take offense, just know your hurting those people physically, and mentally. So please stop. If they committed suicide, because of *you*, how would that make you feel? That you did that to someone. Probably wouldn’t feel all so great, would it? Please spread this around TH-cam and stop bullying! Also if you do copy and paste this put that it’s not yours on the bottom. Thank you for reading this important message.

    I am Danielle’s mother and I’ve been a victim of bullying at this school as well. Not a culture of violence my left butt cheek. Both my daughters and I have all been bullied and no one did a damn thing. I shared with Phil that I had an uncle who had just graduated when I was coming in. I was proud of my uncle he was a baseball player at the school. My aunt who is 10 years older than me was on the softball team and another uncle was on track and in chorus. My aunt was in school with Al Leiter. Anyway, I told the gym teacher who my uncle was. He told me he couldn’t be my uncle because my uncle took gym. I wasn’t comfortable changing clothes at all in front of people and would avoid it all costs. I told to show my green card. I was born and raised in New Jersey. Same year there was a fight on one of the main stairways where a kid was thrown down the stairs. This was in the middle school. Freshman year I was petrified everyday. There were fights every day and some blocking the only way to different rooms. There was one that was so horrifying. I was in lunch and we were going back to class and a fight broke out. The antagonizer stomped on the other kids head. While the one kid was in the hospital for months the other kid was suspended for 2 weeks. I was threatened when I was in class. This guy was mad I ratted him out. The entire class was mad too. I wasn’t getting suspended for doing nothing. He comes back in and turns to me and says he’s going to get people after me. After he said that everyone was upset. He got sent down to the office for that. As I was transferring out of school I bumped into him in one of the classes. He tries telling people that I got him suspended. I told him he got himself suspended. I was also bullied on busses, but please Mr. Corbett (he has an undeserved phd in education therefore I won’t be calling by that title) explain how there’s no culture of violence.

    I was thought about it as a consensual fight in most cases and I'd never thought about anyone feeling bad that they got beat. And now that I'm older even if I think about it even if it was a consensual fight nobody wants it online that they were beat up.

    I’m here to tell you, no matter how many measures you put in place, you can’t stop bullying. You can’t dictate people, people have to want to change, you can’t force these changes you want, we all want.
    Cases like this are money makers for the campaigns, and the owners of these campaigns, not to end bullying, but to start profit margins.
    People need to understand that bullying hasn’t gotten worse, it’s how people can express it is what’s changed. People have always been asses, nothings changed over the years.
    It shouldn’t be about how to stop bullying, because that brings in more attention for people to question what else can’t be done. Telling people that they can’t do something will lead to people questioning what’s being dictated.
    It should be about how to manage these problems, and for some campaigns just banning it causes more separation between the youth, of who will become the adults of tomorrow.
    My point is, you can’t dictate what someone says, if they’re assholes, let them be them, and allow the world to see it too. Not banning bullying, cuz it’s never gonna work

    This story is tragic, but I think it might be important to ask ourselves, Is ABC exploiting this girl's death? I just stopped the video at 4:05 after the journalist just asked a teen on camera if she'd ever thought about suicide. He is not her therapist or a grief counselor, why is he asking that question? to get a reaction that will be gold for the cameras? suicide is still something we don't quite understand fully but what we do know is that these type of news stories that turn the deceased into posthumous celebrities (not quite the same but similar to the 13 reasons why effect) may not be healthy for viewers or the grieving community. The way we cover mass shootings also have that effect on viewers. Maybe this should have been a community issue for the community to deal with? idk, I'm just questioning intention here. something feels off, but regardless of my critique, I'm wishing her family and friends heal from this.
