Bullying is a common thing, unfortunately. You can see it everywhere, but the schools are where it happens the most. The adults are trying to solve these problems by giving them old advice that their parents gave them too. Ignore the bullies, if you are the victim. Don’t terrorize weaker kids, if you were a bully.

But solving this problem needs a multidimensional approach because there are many reasons that make a kid become a bully. Insecurity, problems at home, learning problems, etc. So, the kids need something to make them feel that they are better than someone else.

An association called Ditch the Label performed 8,850 surveys and discovered that about 50% of adults admitted to being victims of harassment. 14% of those studied admitted that they had once been bullies themselves.

We hope that this apology is the beginning of a trend and that former bullies now raise their kids not to be like that.
