Reasons of Bullying 

 There are many causes behind bullying.-: 
  1. Don't like the person being bullied.
  2. They find bullying fun and interesting. 
  3. Like to feel strong.
  4. They think it will make them popular 
Bullying behaviour can arise from distrust, fear, misunderstanding, and lack of knowledge or jealousy - all factors that schools can address in positive and proactive ways. Bullying can also happen because the student gets a reaction they like. This is where teaching student’s ways to effectively respond to bullying behaviour is helpful.
  • Reflects the attitudes towards bullying in the wider community e.g. on the sports field, in parliament, 
  • Limited state legislation inadvertently condones school bullying or limits funding programs,
  • Restricted funding reduces training for teachers and limits implementation opportunities for schools to deal with it effectively.
  • Many school deny bullying and refuse to confront it,
  • Some schools pretend to care, show you their policy but don’t actually implement or intervene effectively when kids report bullying. They even allow staff to be bullied.
  • Many teachers are handicapped by a lack of support from senior management at their school.
  • Most schools don’t actively involve or assist the families who role model inappropriate behaviours to their children, influencing them to become targets, bullies or both.
  • Most schools allow teachers or parents to bully or vice versa, creating an inappropriate role model for their children. How can a bullied teacher help a bullied child?
  • Most schools don’t place formal expectations upon the onlookers/peer-group/ witnesses to intervene, challenge, report or support both targets and bullies. Many schools adopt the latest fashion in reducing bullying without considering an overall plan and evaluating it regularly, or they use Band-Aid approaches.
