answer:I think some of the issue is that children don’t seem to stand up for themselves like we use to. I was bullied in high school. I stood up to her, we got in a fight (she hit me first), and she never bothered me again. I constantly here parents telling their kids that something like that is wrong and that they should never get in fights. I think we have a lot of kids that take it to mean they shouldn’t stand up for themselves. Bullying does seem to go farther now then it use to, but I relly believe the lack of children standing up for themselves plays a major roll in it.
