Bully
Maybeline winters who is 10 years old ,wakes up on a beautiful Sunday morning hearing the neighbours children running and laughing outside as they are playing tag in their back garden. She also hears her parents making breakfast down stairs while having some sort of funny converstation and her brother having a good laugh along with the characters on the show he is watching on the television.
This sounds like a perfect way to wake up wouldn’t you think....and yes , to Maybeline this was the perfect way to start a beautiful Sunday. But Sundays are terrible days for Maybeline who once was one of the happiest children in the neighbourhood. She Loved school and couldn’t wait each holiday for school to start. She had the highest of self confidence and esteem and she was bright , cheerful and always happy.
That was then and this is now..... Tomorrow is Monday and just as every other Monday which has past over the last 6 months, Maybeline begs and pleads with tears in her eyes to her mom to let her stay at home and not go to school. Sadly there is a hundred and sixty thousand other children in America let alone in Australia or any other country for that matter, who feel just as Maybeline will tomorrow morning and that hundred and sixty thousand number alone is just the number of children who misses school on a daily basis because they suffer from the same illness as Maybeline Winter does. The girl with the bright smile and the cheerful personality now suffers from extreme anxiety and depression . She has been through and still very sadly goes through extreme abuse... abuse caused by fellow peers at her school, which has taken her self confidence and her sense of secuirity and left her with a life full of fear, sadness and loneliness.
As you can surely tell by now Maybeline is being bullied. She has been called ugly names some because her hair on her legs are a little longer and thicker than some of the other girls in her year and , been teased because her shoes

That shows how many people are targeted each day, and how many people go home everyday feeling like they are useless. Some people are so afraid of being attacked that they stay home from school. About 160,000 students stay home from school each day. That is a huge population of frightened people. This, obviously, shows that LGBTQ people are not feeling safe in their communities.…

    Some employers may be working with a bully, and not even know it. The Office Bully by Kathryn Hawkins mentions virtuous points of this concept. The issue with bullies is when you think you have escaped from them, they can ultimately return and become your boss.

    Aggressive Behavior

    • 9 Pages

    Aggression is usually defined by behavioral scientists as behavior that is intended to harm another person. Common forms of aggression are physical (for example, punching), verbal (for example, saying or writing hurtful things to another person), and relational (for example, intentionally and publicly not inviting someone to a party to harm his social relationships). Violence usually is conceived as more extreme forms of physical aggression that are likely to result in physical injury. The most extreme form of violence is homicide, but any form of aggressive behavior that is likely to result in an injury serious enough to warrant medical attention is considered violence. Thus, fights involving weapons as well as fistfights by adolescents old enough to be able to inflict serious injuries are considered acts of violence.…
