Assalamu'alaikum Wr. Wb.

Ladies and gentlemen, bullying may seem like a small problem for some people. Most people may not realize that the damage caused by bullying can be so serious. It can be as serious as “death” in extreme cases. If you think that bullying is not a serious matter to deal with just because it merely hurt “feelings” then I have to tell you that you are completely wrong. This “merely hurt your feelings” thing can be the beginning of various worse scenarios such as physical assault, suicide, or any other kinds of violent acts carried out in the name of revenge.

As I said just now that bullying is not a serious problem for some people, just because we simply don’t see the damage. But the thing is, based on my experience as a teacher, I learned that the effect of bullying can stay undetected for years. During this time, the effect of bullying keeps corrupting the soul of the victim. They may hold it inside as a grudge, or they may also develop trauma which may result in self-withdrawal. I believe that this is something that we don’t want to happen to our children,and i hope its never happen to our children in future. That is why we have to lact right now to stop it, and I mean all of us with no exception.

Wassalamu'alaikum Wr. Wb.
