In extreme cases, bullying has led to tragic outcomes like self-harm and suicide.
By addressing bullying, we can protect the mental and emotional health of students, ensuring they have the opportunity to thrive in a positive atmosphere.
Furthermore, bullying also has long-term consequences for the bullies themselves. Engaging in aggressive behavior at a young age can normalize violence as a means of problem-solving.
Bullies are at risk of continuing these behaviors into adulthood, affecting their relationships and overall well-being.
Intervening in their behavior early on can break this cycle and guide them towards healthier ways of interacting with others.
