The image below reminds me of my childhood, which can be related to the word 'school violence'. I used to feel very insecure about my appearance since I was criticized as a skinny and tanned-skin girl. Back in my young age, when I was a part of elementary school, teachers always assigned us a massive amount of homework since they believed practicing all the time was the fastest way to high notes. Moreover, the principal even removed outdoor events and PE lessons from our school schedule just to put us in AP classes. This action has brought pressure to bear on students and unintentionally pushed a lot of students to their limits; therefore, some pupils started to act rebelliously and apathetically. Not just the schools' enormous pressure but also the psychological deficiencies created by dysfunctional homes led to schools abuses. Those students gradually became 'big bullies' and established themselves in gangs. They committed bullying, brawls and a host of other physical abuses. I remember that I was attacked by one of the biggest bullies at school. He was known for being wealthy, but acting very toxically. In that sacrilegious afternoon, that boy came over my class and called me out. He told me that he was jealous of me since I was called 'prodigy' at school and started to define me as 'black ugly kid'. That boy even threw a rotten tomatoes in my backpack and after a week, every students, even the school staffs, started to call me 'black ugly kid'. I was totally overwhelmed and scared. Fortunately, my mom saved me by transferring me to a better and friendlier school. After that event occured, I received my valuable self-defense lesson and sometimes looked back. There is no doubt that school violence has risen these years and created grave consequences: moral decadence, poor human capital development, vandalism and loss of property, erosion of cultural values and bad reputations for schools as well as the society. Till now, being a secondary student and having the highest notes at school still cannot eliminate bad memories about my doleful past.
