Acts of Equality

The frequency of bullying, harassment and discrimination has trended upward over the years and students experience it very often. Many communities had shown concern to stop this discrimination which results to bullying in all schools inside and outside the country. If I had experienced to be bullied and not being treated fair or I knew people experiencing the same, I will not let these bullies to insult or tear my and other people social being. I will promote equality to the school to lessen the number or students and peers being bullied and discriminated.

First, take a firm stand with students. I will let them know that all students have the rights to be treated fairly with respect and kindness. I will inform the class that do not, under any circumstances, let inequality roam inside us. I will also remind them of the policies the school had implemented.

Then, promote cooperation and kindness. As a student, I must be a role model among others in moral way. I’ll discourage bullying by doing acts of kindness and showing good manners and right conduct such as equality. I’ll warn them to be careful about making playful and sarcastic comments because it might ruin other personality. Let them understand how painful inequality can be. I must also tell students that if they see another students being bullied or discriminated, they should stand before the students and inform the bullies about the effects of it to the victim.

Finally, help students gain their confidence. Students who have been bullied or discriminated might have lower self-esteem. I should, help them gain sense of belongingness in the school by talking to them all the time and helping them about the lessons. I will demonstrate meaningful words of encouragement to take back his/her lost self-confidence. I should also lead activities that shows anti-bullying and discrimination so they will able to relate to what really is happening in our world full of unfair people.

Bullying has different types, it could be verbal, physical and mental. This is one of the prevalent problems in schools which could be a painful event for the students who experiencing it. It can result in anxiety and low self-esteem and might leave a mental breakdown to the victim. Equality is not hard to follow and implemented in schools, communities and even to ourselves. As a students, all of us must lead all students toward equality because I know that the rest will follow.
