Tungkol sa bullying,
Once I wrote that the ability to run faster than the others is the easiest way to avoid being bullied, but no one took my advice seriously.
I still believe it to be true.

In my observation, kids bullied have something in common.
It’s not because they can’t speak Japanese well.
It’s because they don’t resist.
It’s because they don’t fight.
It’s because they move slower than the others.
Bullies laugh at the victim and then if he chases them, they run away, knowing that they can outrun him.

Teachers don’t encourage violence so they don’t recommend such a thing, but I believe the only way to avoid being bullied is to fight, to quarrel.
In order to fight, at least you must be able to chase them to the end.

Nice & Relevant thread Mark_15 san.

Nakakalungkot namang isipin na Laganap at patuloy pang lumalaganap ang "bullying" sa mga eskewelahan.......
kung may ilang batang Hapon nga na nakakaranas ng pambuBULLY sa mga kaklase o kapitbahay nila; ayun pa kayang ibang lahi??..... lalo na yung mga JFC o Japinoy.....
sana naman eh mabawasan at kung pepwede ay matigil na......kaso mukhang impossible pa...
at sana mapaliwanagan ang mga bata kung anong maaring maging "epekto" sa buhay,performance sa School at sa kimochi ng isang batang nabubully... kung pwede nga lang ay pag may spare time ay magkaroon ng activity; na may "dramatization" ng batang nambubully at nabubully.... sa avitvity na ito ay magkakaroon sila ng ideya kung paano ang nararansan ng batang nabubully....and how does it feel....

opinyon ko lang to....
