When I was a junior high school student, I saw a girl was bullying. When I saw her, she was alone in the class and at little far place in the classroom, there was a group of girls and they talked about her and they said "she is strange". They talked about famous idol group and she was trying to talk together, but she didn't know about that. Therefore, I think she could't fit in them, she couldn't follow their talking. In Japan, many girls think they should be same like they have same hobbies, same feelings etc. So she was bullied and she can't fit in.
I think bullying is so widespread in Japan because today, there are a lot of people use the internet and also there a lot people write about people's bad words. Ther internet can spread all of the world and it spread very fast. Also I think most students don't know about people will get injured in their minds if they were bullied. So I think the internet is the one of the reason for widespread in Japan and also students don't know about their minds or don't think about that so much. So I think is adults tell about how important to think about the life and bullying is very serious problem is can reduce the number of incidents.

I totally agree that Japanese students tend to have same interests to talk about or have a similar feeling about something, and make some groups at school or classroom. I wonder if there is this kind of thing in other countries. At high school in the US where I went, each students take different classes, like a university in Japan. So, many students seem to have friends in different classes.
ReplyDeleteI think it's disgraceful that so few teachers seem to do anything to help those who are being bullied in schools. It's hard to imagine the situation changing soon though.
ReplyDeleteTo have same opinion and same interests with others is difficult, but I pretended like I had the same opinion with others when I was a junior high student.
ReplyDeleteThat was the way to to avoid being bullied.
