In the Philippines, about 50% of students report being bullied in school. Teasing becomes bullying when it is repetitive or intended to hurt. Boys tend to be more physically aggressive bullies while girls use relational aggression like rumors. Victims do not report bullying due to feeling powerless or fear of retaliation. Bullying can lead to long-term issues like depression and anxiety. Reducing bullying involves teaching victims strategies to stop it, reporting bullying, and ensuring bystanders do not enable it.

    Background about bullying


     Bullying is mean behavior that involves the power of one
    child, or a group of children, over another child. Bullying
    includes actions such as making threats, spreading mean
    rumors, attacking someone physically or verbally, and
    excluding someone from a group on purpose. Kids who
    bully use their power—such as their physical strength, or
    their knowledge of embarrassing information, or their
    popularity— to control or harm another child.
    2. Current situation of bullying in the Philippines
     Despite the beauty and charm of this developing country, the
    Philippines has struggled with bullying issues for years.
    Bullying in the Philippines is extended in schools and over
    the Internet, with a study that states that about 50 percent of
    Filipino students are bullied in school.
    3. a. Pointing out mistakes and joking with friends are part of
    students’ lives but how can we know if the joking goes beyond the
    line and becomes bullying?
     Teasing becomes bullying when it's repetitive or when
    there's a conscious intent to hurt another person.
    b. Are there differences between bullying in girls and boys?
     When it comes to bullying behavior, boys tend to be more
    physically aggressive than girls. Those with a tendency
    toward bullying will attack other people when they show
    weakness. On the other hand, girls tend to bully other girls
    indirectly or by using relational aggression. As a result, they
    resort to verbal assaults, ostracizing, spreading rumors and
    gossiping
    c. Why do victims do not usually report their experience?
     Victims feel like reporting a bully won’t do any good. Not only
    do they feel powerless, but they also worry that the bully will
    only make their lives worse if they speak up.
    d. Why do we feel the need to judge other people?
     When we put someone down by judging them negatively, it
    makes us feel a little better about ourselves.
    e. What can be the problems that can arouse in later years
    because of the bullying?
     A person who are bullied are more likely to experience:
    Depression and anxiety, increased feelings of sadness and
    loneliness, changes in sleep and eating patterns, and loss of
    interest in activities they used to enjoy which may persist into
    adulthood.
    f. What can we do to lessen bullying during these times and
    prevent the future generation to do them as well?
     One of the most helpful things you can do is provide a
    person tools with tools for dealing with bullying. Walking
    away, telling an adult, or telling the bully in a firm voice to
    stop, are all strategies that you can practice to stop bullying.
    It's also important to know how and when to report bullying
    when they witness it, and help an individual to understand
    why they do not want to be a bystander.
    4. Words of encouragement
     Just as we are all born with human rights we also have
    responsibilities to respect and protect the rights of others.
    This means that it is important to always be respectful of
    other people. We all have a responsibility to avoid all forms
    of bullying, including spreading gossip or making offensive
    comments about others
