MWP #2 Introduction

Today in America bullying has become increasingly violent and widespread. Many schools have reported high numbers of bullies and victims who were subjected to the violent acts. Within the past few months bullying has been highlighted in schools. More students are attempting violent crimes due to undiagnosed psychological issues, being a victim of bullying in the past, lack of parental advice and control and especially due to the lack of counseling. Within many schools across the country, districts are creating excuses as to why their schools do not provide the necessary counseling to the victims and the bullies. As a result of this, more bully victims are being diagnosed with depression and many commit suicide within months of being bullied. I will attempt find a solution to this increasing problem by researching studies performed on bullying and by using examples of bullying within schools.
