4. Moderator: What effective methods do you think adults can use to help kids deal
with bullying and stand-up for themselves?
a) Panel: Bullying is unwanted, aggressive behavior among school aged children
that involves a real or perceived power imbalance. The behavior is repeated,
or has the potential to be repeated, over time. Both kids who are bullied and
who bully others may have serious, lasting problems.
b) Panel: Kids who bully use their power such as physical strength, access to
embarrassing information, or popularity to control or harm others. Power
imbalances can change over time and in different situations, even if they
involve the same people.
c)
Panel: Bullying behaviors happen more than once or have the potential to
happen more than once.
d) Panel: All the extra-curricular activities that schools use to have like the clubs,
dramas and all those types of things, I think these always help kid's confidence
and when you have kids that have confidence in themselves, it's easier to make
friends and do those same things like those clubs. And the more people that
are friends with each other, the less chance you have of being bullied.
5. Moderator: Should school's teach kids about morals and ethical behavior like
discipline, respect, confidence, responsibility towards each other? Should that
be a part of school curriculum?
a) Panel: Schools, however, to mitigate the effects and reduce the incidence of
bullying, should comply with the Implementing Rules and Regulations of the
Anti-bullying law of 2013 to address the root causes of bullying.
b) Panel: If we are going to teach them at a young age then we should take it to
the parents as well and not just the kids.
c) Panel: Bullying includes actions such as making threats, spreading rumors,
attacking someone physically or verbally, and excluding someone from a group
on purpose.
d) Panel: Bullying can occur during or after school hours. While most reported
bullying happens in the school building, a significant percentage also happens
in places like on the playground or the bus.
