1. Moderator: How are adults part of the problem?
a) Panel: Our reliance on technology isn't helping. DoSomething org reports that
68% of teenagers admit that cyber bullying is a real problem.
b) Panel: According to StopBullying.gov, one in four school aged children report
that they have been the victim of bullying in the past.
c) Panel: Adults either don't want to do anything about it as they're trying to make
you stronger or they try to take the whole situation to their hand and fix every
problem with it. And, when adults get in situations about bullying with kids, they
usually end-up making it worst for the victim.
d) Panel: Our children are under a great deal of stress, more so than past
generations. Recent research has shown that their pressures are equal to that
of adults.
2. Moderator: How hard for school to deal with the issue?
a) Panel: Kids used to be victims of targeting outside of the home. Now they are
being tormented in the place where they should be safe: their own home.
b) Panel: With suicide being the second leading cause of death in young people,
it is critical that we do something.
c) Panel: Teenagers don't have the brain development, self-care knowledge,
emotional maturity or experience to deal with it in nearly as effective a way as
adults do.
d) Panel: The parents need to back-up the school officials. If the school officials
aren't there, then it's nearly impossible to stop bullying on their own. This is a
two-front war and you can't just do it in a school environment.
3. Moderator: is standing-up for yourself letting an adult know what's going?
a) Panel: If you respect yourself enough to realize that there is a problem, then
you can take the action necessary to get it solved.
b) Panel: What we can do is be proactive in teaching our kids to recognize and
stand up to bullying. By raising young people to be brave and firm in the face
of this behavior, we can stop bullying as it happens.
c) Panel: In my opinion, it's too early to say, the rise of reported bullying cases is
a consequence of the reporting requirements of the law. Bullying cases is
rampant. However, it remains under reported prior to the anti-bullying act. This
is understandable, since no parents or even school administration would like
his/her family or school to be famous because of bullying.
d) Panel: Outgoing and aggressive bully might make fun of you to your face or
physically hurt you.
