School Violence

School Violence is a big problem in school's today. It has been a problem since schools have been around, but has been getting much worse over the years. It has come to the point where kids who are bullied everyday, are afraid to come to school; they fear for their lives. It is no longer just teasing and name calling. Now it is down to the point of bully's actually threatening or physically hurting the bullied.
It is also no longer just in middle of high-school, but now elementary schools also. Some people say "Kids will be kids," but something has to be done. Teachers and parents should take certain precautions when they see kids being bullied, so that it doesn;t happen again. In some cases when children have been bullied since young ages it forces them to grow up more violent and in some cases more psychologically unbalanced than others. For example, the shooting in Virginia when a student walked through a machine gun and killed many students and professors. They say that when he was younger he was always the child who was tortured by bullys, and as a result he became unbalanced.
