Why do people hate going to school?

School must be the perfect place for learning new skills and knowledge that will help you now and in later life as you start work, as it should be a happy time in a young person’s life. What can make people hate going to it…?

From my personal standpoint, I only confirm that there’s only one word which answers this question: BULLYING.

We all agree that bullying is common nowadays in schools, and it is quite offensive, that it can target males and females, teens or adults. Let highlight some types of bullying:
-Direct Bullying and Indirect Bullying
-Physical Bullying
-Emotional Bullying

Bullying can cause lack of self-trust at some people who facing it really early may affect their personality. Recently it blows on social media this Nine-year-old boy who suffered at the hands of bullies and online trolls, A mum has filmed a heart-breaking message to the children bullying her disabled son. Seeing this really touches many souls. So what can we really do to stop this problem?

To be able to answer this question we should know first what causes the bullying. People used to think that bullies either have low self-esteem and they bully to make themselves feel better, or they come from complicated homes. Personally, I did some research on the topic and many conclude that bullies are higher on the social ladder and push others down to remain on the top of the hierarchy. Thus schools, parents, and educators can prevent bullying in schools many ways as I think:
-Teach Kindness and Empathy
-Create Opportunities for Connections
-Reward Positive Behaviours

Those are some of many solutions that can help to decrease the bullying phenomenal in our space. Bullying can make working life miserable. You can lose all faith in yourself, you can feel depressed, and find it hard to motivate yourself again.
