Reflection on bullying

Bullying happens when one person or a gang of people use their strength or power to hurt or frighten weak, smaller or less pwerful people. Bullying often happens in the school. Weak and small students are often bullied by other students who are more powerful than them. A bully can threaten the victims or demand for things. For example, the gang of people threatened a person to help them complete their homeworks, assignments or the gang of people can threaten a person and demand money from him/her. Such incidents had happened in Singapore a lot of times. One of this incident had happened recently and it was related to a girl who had drown and passed away. From a article of the newspaper, we knew that that girl and her friends often bullied a senior in their school. They also demanded money from her. At first, the gang only demanded a few dollars from the senior. However, when time passed by, they began to demand for more money. The senior often made herself ill and she refused to go to school to study. When she heard that the girl had drown, she typed this phrase in her blog '' Serve her right!!!!!'' Although, she had apologised to the victim's friends and victim's parents for typing this in her blog, the victim's friends did not forgive her. They beat her up, knocked her head against the wall and gave her twenty plus tight slaps on her face, making her to have hearing problems. They also break the pots of flowers outside the senior's house. This is only one of the cases that happened in Singapore. I hardly faced any problems related to bullying in my life. I was abled to maintain good relationships with my classmates. We often take care, look after one another. Thus, i think such incidents will not happen on me.
