Rejected petition School Bullying Comes At A Price (Law Change)
More details
Due to personal and external experience of the horrific impact that bullying has on young people, I have created this petition to spread this message:
Bullying, regardless of circumstances, MUST NOT be treated with leniency!
I believe that any form of bullying must be treated as equally as a crime, as theft, for instance.
In particular, education environments are already high pressure and high intensity, meaning that the added compression of bullying can cause many young people, with fantastic lives ahead, to fall apart.
NO YOUNG OR ELDERLY PERSON MUST GO THROUGH THIS!
I am pleading with the entirety of the United Kingdom to support this petition, as bullying is destructive in so many ways.
Believe me I know.
