Persistent Bullies Should be Expelled

Consequences are the best way to teach people to change certain antisocial behavioral characteristics.

*One reason is that if a bully gets away with it, s/he has no incentive to change (no defamation, no giving up things; nothing): “I did it ’cause I could”

*Another reason is that the bully begins to identify with being a bully, as if that who s/he is, guilt factors in pressuring the bully to believe that this is his/her calling:”I can’t change who I am.”

*It becomes a habit, and habits are hard to get rid of: “I know It’s bad, but I can’t help it, this is what I do, I’ve done it all my life. I can’t stop now.”

1-Often bullying occurs without any teachers, parents, or faculty noticing

2-Children who are being bullied are affriad to speak out and tell someone who can help them. They are often affraid of telling people that they are being bullied and need help. If the teacher or supervisor has noknowledge of the bullying situation they may only add to the problem by giving the child being bullied and the bully themselves time together being unsupervised.

3-According to an organization directed towards preventing bullying with children and adults which has a website called bullystatistics.org chidren who are bullied can have many problems. Often their school work suffers aswell as they are stunted socially and emotionally. In some serious cases they can have sevre depression and attempted suicide.

4-It can be hard for children who are being bullied to get help Each child that has been bullied has low self-esteem along with other issues as well. Often they already face enough attacks and they do not want to be labled a tatle tail, snitch, or rat. A child may need help to escape being bullied and by punishing thoose bullies it will make it easier to escape the attacks of a bully. If a child wants to speak out and let others know about the bully situation the thought of the bully being expelled would lead to the right amount of comfort and safety for them to speak up and let somebody know what is going on.

Yes, persistent bullies should be expelled from school because they are very harmful to others around them. Bullying in the classroom is a horrific problem. Children that are bullied can have long term affects and disturb them in various way. According to bullyingstatistics.org children that are bullied will begin to see abusive relationships as normal and will even begin to change their self image. This can seriously lead to ruining a child’s future. This problem presented is usually how people that are abused daily in their life get use to it. Actions must be taken at a young age in order to show that there are consequences with all of their actions If the bully is not expelled then the bully will see no consequence. Thus, leading to a life that will only lead to abuse and violence.

Yes, persistent bullies should be expelled because they can seriously injure people on various levels. When children are younger and begin to bully in school they can be a bit too harsh sometimes. This can lead to fights and other actions that may hurt other people. To been seen on a larger scale, domestic violence really emphasizes why it is bad. The men that are usually beating their wives were bullies in school and only learned to a bully over time. This is not good because results like husbands beating their wives or women hitting children is all they ever learned. If children see their fathers beating their mother, or if hit by parents they can too turn into bullies. This just regenerates the cycle and passes it along. This is why persistent bullies should be expelled.

Yes, all persistent bullies should be expelled. Bullies are commonly thought of as students who pick on other students. However, bullies can also be teachers and they need to be expelled also. Teachers that humiliate students or use their power to their benefit need to be terminated. They can lead to various situations that may danger a person’s health physically or more commonly, mentally. In some schools it is known that children are hit with rulers. This is not acceptable though because it can really hurt children. Also teachers who shout grades out loud are bullies. If a teacher tells a student’s grade out loud with intent to embarrass them, then they are bullying the student. It is not fair and can lead to a cycle of people bullying one another.

1. First of all I would like to make it clear that it is “persistent “bullies that should be expelled. I am not saying that bullies should be expelled right away. I agree with the idea that children who are bullying the other are also the ones who have issues with communicating other students and they should be given help and the second opportunity. So how persistent is persistent? There is need to define “persistent.” It probably changes at each school though; they all have different rules and regulations. Some schools might give them the notice warning that the one who bully the other will be expelled if bullying happens again. If bullying happens again even after giving them the second chance and at the same time offering them some kind of help such as a personal counseling, they should be expelled. Counseling and providing them right direction to not to bully the others would not work all the time due to lack of resource or proficiency of the counselor. There should be many other reasons that counseling might not work because the issue is complex the most of the time. And there might be another child who have been a victim of bullying and die by one’s own hand during the process of counseling of those children who bully the other. Therefore, giving aggressors the second chance would be enough just for once, and they should be expelled from school after the second time.

2. It is very difficult for children who suffer from being bullied to report bullying because they are afraid of retaliation later. If there is no guarantee that aggressor will be gone from school, they would be afraid and hesitant to report the issue to school or parents and probably take no action against bullying. There should be pretty high probability that retaliation will happen after reporting bully since the attackers probably would get pretty upset if they find out that they have been reported to the school for bullying, blame the weaker, and the situation will just be worse. But if they know that those children who are bullying will be gone from school, they are more likely to report bullying because they don’t have to worry about retaliation later. In one of the claims made by opposition side, somebody claims that report on a bully and she/he will come back at you worse the situation. If there is not any action taken against bullying, nothing will happen and will be changed, and children being bullied will just keep suffering from bullying and they might commit a suicide eventually. Therefore, as a result of expelling the attackers, there will be more lives saved. I am aware that defining bullying or evaluating which side is wrong or right is difficult to do. But I believe the issue of bullying is similar of the issue of sexual harassment. Sexual harassment is pretty subjective; it depends on the persons who receive it. If she/he feels that she/he has been sexually harassed, it should be called sexual harassment. The same idea can be applied to bullying. If a child feels being bullied verbally or physically by the others and mentally or physically harmed, it should be called bullying. Therefore, if somebody claims that he/she has been bullied, some actions that will lead to expelling aggressor at the end should be taken.

3. Being exuded from a school would negatively affect bully’s life. It is pretty severe punishment that will bring many detrimental consequences to them. It is much more severe punishment than suspension and probably the most oppressive punishment a school can give to a bully. They might have to deal with many difficulties after going though the process of expulsion and possibly going to another school. They might potentially even become a victim of bullying after joining a new school. They will have to suffer defamation of being a bully. There should be an opportunity to give them a second chance before expulsion like I stated earlier. But if the second time happens, there has to be a consequence that they have to be deal with. If there is no severe punishment, who or what will stop them from bullying? If a bully gets away with it, she/he has no incentive to change and the weaker will keep suffering from it. Even though expelling from school will adversely affect attacker’s life, they deserve it; that is the consequence of what they did. There might be wrong judgment of expelling them, but it is for protection of lives of children who are targets of bulling. A value of lives of children should be overweighed more than anything else. The harsher the punishment, bigger the effect. The harsher the punishment, there should be less possibility of bullying and another life might be saved. It is not capital punishment and that is the whole another issue. They will have to deal with painful consequence of bullying because they have been bullying the weaker without knowing the pain of suffering.

If you just talk to them they will just listen through one ear and go out through the other ear, & if you do something about it their actually going to be scared & stop or maybe if you expel them, when they go to a new school they will actually stop. Teachers are bullies too as well, sometimes they talk about students culture, like saying “This part of the city is ugly, it smells, this & that” without knowing you have students from that place -__-
Also, students are worst!
You can NEVER make them happy
If your over weight “F**ing fatass” If your skinny “Anorexic” If your a girl & have lots of guyfriends “Ho“
If you don’t have friends “loner”
If your smart “NERD”
If not “stupid”
So what’s the deal, what do they want you to be?
You can never make these kids happy.

Whether bullies are former or current victims of other bullies or if victims have been bullied before is irrelevant and certainly does not justify bullying.

The buck must stop somewhere. Bullying is a choice and it is the wrong choice, just as cheating is punished, bullying should also be punished.

the whole point of a reform school is to reform these kids, methods differ in different facilities. Either way, the staff of these schools is in charge not the biggest, baddest bullies.

Why assume that bigger bullies cannot be caught, victims will only step up if/when they have an opening. If bullying is not punishable then big or small bullies will have nothing to fear and victims would have no justice to turn to.

Persistence can be evaluated.

Everyone doesn’t call people names for no reason.

Bullies should not be allowed to study with non-bully peers, they can attend their own special/reform school/s and leave the civilized children alone, otherwise impeccably well-mannered children will be spoiled as well.

Wnile sympathy is needed for dealing with all students whether bullies or not there is a point where sympathy can go too far and can be counter productive in that it can give bullies a feeling that they can get away with behaviour that is harmful. Expelling a bully would be doing great hurt but if that bully is doing greater hurt to a person whether physically or mentally to a person and they have been warned or punished earlier about their behaviour. Expelling people can be a tragedy but some times it takes a lesser tragedy to avoid an even greater one.

Being expelled from school at the very start may seem harsh. Really it is not. You may think they should get a second chance, but really they don’t need one. What if the bully breaks a kids arm, leg, or even both. What would you do then? You would have to expell them or they might do it again. Say you don’t expell them and they do something even worse like bring pot, or some other drug type thing into school, then would you expell them?

Not always true. Sometimes expelling people can be a sharp shock to that persons system by showing them that they can be rejected because of their own behaviour. This in turn forces a bully to potentially turn their own ways around and become a more responsible member of society.

If you need to bully, then there is something wrong with you. People are trying to make America a better place, but bullies are doing the oppsite. If they want power and control this is not the way to get it. Expulsion is the awnser, otherwise they won’t stop!!!!!!
