s Wilmert, a boy with learning disabilities. He was being teased and bullied on the playground at school and 5 of his classmates were pulled aside to ask why they thought that he was being bullied. You would expect that elementary school students would not have much to say on the subject but the fact of the matter is, the responses were rather insightful. In fact, one of the boys said that they were taking advantage of him because he was easier to pick on, and they felt it wasn’t right!
Sometimes, the best thing that can be done to stop the bullying is to educate the students on how to combat the problem. Although bullying is always likely to be a problem, having this type of insight into the issue may go a long way in helping to solve it.
