Understanding Child Bullying

In most cases, when a child is a bully at school, there is a reason for it. Sometimes it is because the child is spoiled and used to getting whatever he wants when he wants it. Other times, it is because the child is in a difficult situation he cannot cope with and has behavior issues with others.

The Bully's Background

The Bully is an example of what some children do go through in their lives. Bobby lives with his abusive Dad. His mother left because she was being abused by her husband. Bobby cannot understand why his mom left him there.

Challenges at Home

His dad is an alcoholic, and they sometimes do not have much to eat. Bobby takes food away from children at school because he is hungry. His dad is always angry, and Bobby is more of a parent to him.
