Standing in front of you all, I would like to deliver my speech
about bullying. But first, we must know the definition of bullying. So, what is bullying? Bullying is the use of force, threat, or coercion to abuse, intimidate, or aggressively dominate others. The behavior is often repeated and habitual. Have you ever been bullied? Has it happened to your friend? Some people think that bullying is just a stage, a normal part of life. However, fact is bullying is not a “normal” or socially acceptable behavior. We give bullies power by our acceptance of this behavior. So what are the cause of bullying? It can be such as people feel strong, powerful, rich, and have everything. It happens coincidentally, he saw the weakness of others. Ladies and gentlemen, There are many forms of bullying, among others; 1.

People who are bullied might fell anxious, depressed, lonely or insecure and feel like crying a lot. Feel angry and wonder why this is happening to you. Feel afraid to go to anywhere. Think the problemis relentless and wonder if it will ever stop. People who frequently bully others are more likely to feel disconnected from school and dislike school. Get into fights, vandalise property and leave school early. People who witness bullying may be reluctant to attend school. Feel fearful or powerless to act and guilty for not act. Some people that have been bullied all their life decided to leave their old life because they don’t appreciate it and commit suicide. Bullying is so bad that it can end up with dying and killing others which shows how serious and bad this is! If this happening to you, tell to yourself that it’s not your fault, and it’s the bullies who need to change, not you. I have some steps for you if you have been bullied. This is what to do: First, talk to someone you can trust, like a teacher, parent, older friend or relative. Second, Be persistent. If the first person you talk to ignores you, don’t give up. Speak to someone else. And the last, If you can, write down everything the bullies have done or have said to you, and try to write down how you feel. When you have found someone you can trust and who is helpful, discuss what you have written with that person. Be very careful to only write down which really happen. Okay, there are the steps. So, we have to change this problem and be a strong person. We can stop bullying that happen to us or somebody by know how to handle it. I challenge all of you that we must be aware on this problem.
