Bullying today has become very serious. I don't see how anyone could not take bullying seriously. I sometimes can bully people but its not like I mean to. Some times it just slips out. When bullying comes to major extremes I do believe that is the time to do something about it. I have witnessed bullying whether my self was the one that was the one doing it or it was a close friend. I see people getting bullied all the time not just physically but mentally as well. It's hard to believe people would take their own life or injure themselves over being bullied. I really hope since we watched the presentation that bullying will be taken more seriously.
Laughing at someone whether you are laughing with them or at them is a sign of bullying. Today, people have a really wide variety on what they think is funny. I've been around people long enough to know whether they are laughing with you or because of you. I don't see what good it does to laugh at someone. Laughing is a great way to entertain your self, but have you ever thought of how it makes the other child feel? When I was in 3rd Grade, I had a girl that had a disability in my class and she would get mad easily. She was also slow reader. Well, she was the one chosen to read out loud and she was embarrassed, let alone nervous. Everyone in the class started to laugh because she wasn't going as fast as they would. (I was even the one who laughed). Looking back now, I feel bad. Even I knew that it hurt her feelings and she wasn't like the rest of us, I felt cool because everyone was laughing and I laughed like everyone else. I didn't really ever look at her point of view. Now, I would take it back.
When I say something that hurts another person's feeling I rarely say I was only kidding. Not that I don't joke around when I'm talking and I happen to get to the point where it hurts someone. I joke all the time. Okay, not all the time. I guess with me you can tell where the fine line of me joking and not joking. I don't intend on being mean every day it just ends up this way.
I'm not really the one to be mad a friends or my boyfriend on a regular basis. If they do something I don't like than that becomes a problem, but its not like I do anything that puts their life in danger. Friends and my boyfriend aren't really my main target. I guess most of the time I get mad is because I get annoyed by someone. I've had many times where people were talking to me and I'd get annoyed and if they keep talking, I guess I do get a little mad ;). I'm not the one to automatically be mad at someone for no reason. I have reasons. Just depends on the day and what you do.
