A great ad on bullying in school
by David Atkins
This is a fantastic French ad on bullying in school.:
The end of the ad loosely translates to “A workday doesn’t look like this. What about a school day? Bullying at School.”
As someone who was homeschooled until college, this is what freaks me out most about schools. I don’t understand why kids are allowed to be fully in control of school culture, why teachers and principals aren’t given more leeway to deal with these issues without preposterous overboard “zero tolerance policies.” I don’t understand why behavior that would be criminally illegal and civilly actionable in adulthood, is allowed when the assailants are under the age of majority in a trapped space where the victimized children have no choice but to be if they want a decent future.
