BULLYING BETWEEN COUPLES


Bullying between couples is very common in schools or universitiesthan men most of all abuse women.both their confidence as to their sexuality because men are believingthe law and that echo to the lower women's self esteem.

But not only talk about men because there are women who are sopossessive man who mistreat and make them look bad in front of the other people, then what about bullying among couples is that both men and women are abused and in some cases they are very strong partners can involve their own families and make the problem much bigger.
Some very strong cases of bullying among couples almost alwayscomes to a death or suicide ortho cases. ¨ What happens is that women do not report pressure of man because if you lick that algienbullying another person is illegal but what happens is that they are afraid to complain for fear of being killed or hurt.
A possible solution of this would be that families give them strength to women and men to claim that if not to reach a problematic more difficult to control because otherwise what would make quick workthat are killing would be that if the tip hits kill commit suicide.

Whats goin on..

Born to Not Get Bullied

When she was in high school, Lady Gaga says, she was thrown into a trash can.
The culprits were boys down the block, she told me in an interview on Wednesday in which she spoke — a bit reluctantly — about the repeated cruelty of peers during her teenage years.
“I was called really horrible, profane names very loudly in front of huge crowds of people, and my schoolwork suffered at one point,” she said. “I didn’t want to go to class. And I was a straight-A student, so there was a certain point in my high school years where I just couldn’t even focus on class because I was so embarrassed all the time. I was so ashamed of who I was.” 

Searching for ways to ease the trauma of adolescence for other kids, Lady Gaga came to Harvard University on Wednesday for the formal unveiling of her Born This Way Foundation, meant to empower kids and nurture a more congenial environment in and out of schools.
Lady Gaga is on to something important here. Experts from scholars to Education Secretary Arne Duncan are calling for more focus on bullying not only because it is linked to high rates of teen suicide, but also because it is an impediment to education.
A recent study from the University of Virginia suggests that when a school has a climate of bullying, it’s not just the targeted kids who suffer — the entire school lags academically. A British scholar found that children who simply witness bullying are more likely to skip school or abuse alcohol. American studies have found that children who are bullied are much more likely to contemplate suicide and to skip school. 

The scars don’t go away, Lady Gaga says. “To this day,” she told me, “some of my closest friends say, ‘Gaga, you know, everything’s great. You’re a singer; your dreams have come true.’ But, still, when certain things are said to you over and over again as you’re growing up, it stays with you and you wonder if they’re true.”
Any self-doubt Lady Gaga harbors should have been erased by the huge throngs that greeted her at Harvard. “This might be one of the best days of my life,” she told the cheering crowd.
The event was an unusual partnership between Lady Gaga and Harvard University in trying to address teen cruelty. Oprah Winfrey showed up as well, along with Kathleen Sebelius, the secretary of health and human services.
Kathleen McCartney, dean of the Graduate School of Education here at Harvard, said that she and her colleagues invited Lady Gaga because they had been searching for ways to address bullying as a neglected area of education — and as a human rights issue. As many as one-fifth of children feel bullied, she said, adding: “If you don’t feel safe as a child, you can’t learn.”
Lady Gaga describes her foundation as her “new love affair,” and said that, initially, she thought about focusing on a top-down crackdown on bullying. But, over time, she said, she decided instead to use her followers to start a bottom-up movement to try to make it cooler for young people to be nice.
I asked Lady Gaga if people won’t be cynical about an agenda so simple and straightforward as kindling kindness. Exceptionally articulate, she seemed for the first time at a loss for words. “That cynicism is exactly what we’re trying to change,” she finally said.
Bullying isn’t, of course, just physical violence. Lady Gaga’s mother, Cynthia Germanotta, who will serve as president of the Born This Way Foundation, says that one of the most hurtful episodes in her daughter’s childhood came when schoolmates organized a party and deliberately excluded Lady Gaga.
Lady Gaga was reluctant to talk too much about her own experiences as a teenager for fear that her foundation would seem to be solely about bullying. Her aim is a far broader movement to change the culture and create a more supportive and tolerant environment. “It’s more of a hippie approach,” she explained.
“The Born This Way Foundation is not restitution or revenge for my experiences,” Lady Gaga told me. “I want to make that clear. This is: I am now a woman, I have a voice in the universe, and I want to do everything I can to become an expert in social justice and hope I can make a difference and mobilize young people to change the world.”
Yes, that sounds grandiose and utopian, but I’m reluctant to bet against one of the world’s top pop stars and the person with the most Twitter followers in the world. In any case, she’s indisputably right about one point: Bullying and teenage cruelty are human rights abuses that need to be higher on our agenda.

CYBER BULLYING


The cyber bullying is a modern way to practice the bullying. It can be practice by anyone ‘cause it is practice by the media known as internet through phones, social networks, electronic mails (e-mails), blogs, chats, text messages.
It consists in the way that people transmit wrong or false information of a person and this makes a bad reputation of a person in a society, it starts with the rejection between the people and the person that's been hurting person and that “bad reputation” that the people start making is in almost all the cases gossips or only thinks that may be simple but that affects the personality of the person.
Some examples that are commons to see related to cyber bullying are the one that happens in the social nets, were the people publishes pictures or offensing phrases or bad comments about a person, or in extreme cases a person creates a group were they start to talk in a bad way or almost saying thinks that are ilogical and are not true.
Sometimes cyber bullying is used either to annoy to someone, in some cases that is for get money of benefits or similar, also they can annoy saying that if the person does not do the thing that is requested by the aggressor they would upload an offensive picture that most of the times is photoshop in the one they take out the clothes to make a pornographic representation with the face of the person that’s suffering of bullying.
The cyber bullying brings as a consequence sexual abuse and also stoles, without counting the psychological consequences and almost the dead by suicide.

PHYSIOLOGYCAL BULLYING




This type of bullying is one of the cases that is present frequently, and that is because a big example of this is, for example when suddenly because of something a person makes that another person feels in a less level caused by an illogical situation but that for somebody that has a personality very vulnerable can brings delays in the integral formation of the person, because this also cause lesions in the mind and  thoughts of this person.

The psychological bullying causes different reactions in persons, respect with their relationship between family and them because they are scared to tell them what is really going on with them in school or in a social net such as twitter or Facebook. This consists in a disqualifying treat to somebody with the intention of destabilizes in a physical form. The psychological harassment goes against the moral dignity and integrity of the person that is suffering this type of bullying.

It is a long process were the person starts losing the trust in it, So be it with the smallest act that anyone can do without intention and without thinking about it before, can injure or intimidation or psychological disorders, since many times these people resort to the use of going to school, not to leave the house, because you have the feeling that everyone in your around only one set.
Many people react in different ways and many of those ways are not adequate, some react to assault another, others to suicide, or both shut themselves that they are deprived of reality, you could say that with any case of bullying can damage the lives of others, even to utterly ruin.

BULLYING IN SCHOOL


Now a days bullying is a big problem not only in families, in work, in a relationship or in the street, we can see this problem especially in schools. There are many types of bullying like verbal, physically, physiology and others. Some people humiliate others either by their physical aspects and any problems at home or at school, people who do this bullying also makes the others part of these jokes.
People who are victims of school bullying tend to be affected physically and psychologically but also they had to live with this situation for a long time, reach a point where they no longer bear the humiliations and teasing to make decisions that affect the lives of these people. Cases that occur in schools show that bullying in schools is a serious situation which different people live, is something which has been done long time ago and every day are worst situations. Bullying in schools is because some are from other races, have different customs or culture, this we could relate to discrimination, there are cases where school bullying can see right through social networking or other Internet media.
As a conclusion we can say that bullying is a problem that is seen repeatedly both at school and elsewhere, even among family members, but the school bullying is the most serious and where there are worse cases that people had to live with this long time, even the students come to suicide. Happens not only with students but also with teachers or people working on this.

Other people start going apart the society or they stop doing the daily activities.

BULLYING CAUSES


The principal causes of bullying are the jealousy that one person have to another, the thought of a person that says that he/she is higher or better than another person, and the rancor that someone transmits to another. This is very known by all the society cause it doesn’t only bring consequences to the person that is suffering the bullying, it comes with consequences with de aggressor and the people that is watching those violence acts.
