Maritza Paz's curator insight,
March 13, 2017 3:13 AM
I have decided to choose this topic because I believe bullying is a huge problem facing the world yet people tend to forget about it. In this article written by Harvard student Leah Shafter it shares insight from students on bullying that occurs in school. This article was written in a question and answer form. Having five students from different states share their perspectives on bullying. All five students seemed to have the same answers through all question. Summing up that bullying is a huge problem. Yet the victims and bystanders do nothing to stop it because they're afraid it will cause more trouble or cause them to get involved. They also discussed the importance of an ally. And how it takes courage to be one. And how one is needed for all. They finished the questions with asking the teens what can their school do to “ create an environment without bullying, teasing, and exclusion…”. All students asked to make it more aware to students. By making posters forming clubs. So that one can feel safe in their environment. Overall I believe Shafter wrote this article to show the importance of bullying. Many people tend to forget that bullying is and continues to be a huge problem around the world. Yet with everything happening today people tend to forget about the “little” problems in the world. By using students themselves as the main point. This targets reader into being more sympathetic as well as more aware of what these students experience and how they feel about this topic. Thus grabbing reader's attention. I believe this made the source more credible as well as attention worthy because it based on true opinions. Rather than lies.

Bullying is such experience. In case you're interested in reading or sharing, I've penned an open letter to bully victims. It's my hope that it will inspire children to seek help and to know that it does get better. http://tutorintinseltown.com/bullying-victims/
