'Just Kidding' and 'Ganging Up' from Odd Girl Reflection

'Just Kidding' and 'Ganging Up' from Odd Girl Reflection

A time when I have been made harassed by a larger group was the time when I got a bad grade on a test while most of the people in my class got a good grade. The people that got a good grade went to me and start laughing at me because I got a bad grade while they did well. I didn't care much, and I knew it was my fault for not studying so I didn't let them get me down when they started laughing. Some of the several options that I can think of in this situation that I could have done are to tell them that I'll be sure to study next so they might stop picking on me, ignore them completely, or just ask them what s funny about getting a bad grade on a test. The first option is a good way to try to make them stop laughing by changing the situation into one that make them feel that they are actually helping me by motivating me to do better next time. This might make them stop laughing and make them see that I can get good when I actually start trying. The second option is the worse option because ignoring bullies doesn't make them stop. They don't care if you ignore them, they'll continue to bully you even if you don't care. The third option is the most logical because by making them learn that everybody get bad grades once in awhile, they'll probably become quiet and it would make them reflect on the time that they had a bad grade on a test. There are many reasons why I think people bully others. One reason is that they feel the need to bully others to feel good about them. People that bully others might feel that they become a superior force compared to others which make them feel good. Another reason why I think people bully others is that they want attention. By bullying, they get a lot of attention by the people around them which may causes the bully to feel good to be the center of attention. The last reason that I can think of why people bully others is that there is something wrong with their mental state. They might be insecure about themselves so they bully others to make them feel normal. In conclusion, a person that bullies others in life is an important thing to deal way. There many options that you can do while being bullied, but there is always the one option that make the best outcome of a situation such as that, and it is the individual’s job to think critically about which is the best option.
