bullying

Often, we hear stories where people are suffering in this world. Some suffer from what people do to them, like bullying. At times, the bullies are oblivious of the things they do to the victims because all they think is they are ‘joking.’ Well, the truth is, jokes can hurt too.

Have you witnessed bullying before? Or have you watched any movies that depict the topic? If you have not, we have just the list for you. 

Take your time to analyse the movies and look at how it affects the victims (or maybe the bullies too).
