Bullying has been named an “emerging public health issue requiring intervention” (Ansary, Elias, Greene, & Green, 2015, p. 27). As a major problem in schools around the world, the issue of bullying must be addressed in order to keep students physically and emotionally safe. The act of bullying not only affects the well-being of the person being targeted, but it also affects the rest of the school community too. It can be difficult for teachers, principals, and superintendents to make an ethical decision about what to do when bullying occurs because there are misunderstandings about what bullying is, leading to the improper identification of situations.
Bullying in Schools What seems fun and harmless for some students, is painful and degrading to others. Bullying has been a critical issue around schools, but before it was not as dangerous and know as it is now. These do not means bullying was not happening, it means it was not taken into consideration by parents or teachers.

One of the articles I read was about bullying and the effects it have on children. The article talked about the long term affect that bullying have on children such as mental health problems and behavioral problems. I think it sad that children seek attention so they bully other children and it leads to the bullied child having mental and behavioral problems later on down the line in life. It also stated that a young girl getting bullied can be as traumatizing as her being physically or sexually abused and can follow her all the way into adulthood.
Bullying has happened to everyone and even you have been bullied at some point and time of your life. Bullies seem to not realise that they are bullying and that it is hurting the victim.

Introduction Bullying presents one of the greatest health risks to children, youth, and young adults in U.S. society. It is pernicious in its impact even if often less visible and less readily identifiable than other public health concerns. Its effects on victims, perpetrators, and even bystanders are both immediate and long term and can affect the development and functioning of individuals across generations. The epicenter for bullying is schools, colleges, and universities, where vast numbers of children, youth, and young adults spend much of their time. Bullying—a form of harassment and violence—needs to be understood from a developmental, social, and educational perspective.
