Bullying in schools is a worldwide problem that affects millions of children on a daily basis. Bullying is comprised of direct behaviors such as teasing, taunting, threatening, hitting, and stealing that are initiated by one or more students against a victim.

Problem #2

Type the paragraphs below. Make sure to double space between the two paragraphs. Words in red are 18 red-font.

I was miserable from the day I arrived. The food stunk, my counselor was a loser, and my new girlfriend was back home in Louisiana. I called my parents collect every night, begging them to let me come home. Finally, my parents refused to accept one of those calls. They thought quitting camp was a bad idea. I was thinking child abuse. They were thinking it was time for me to grow up (Teenagers preparing for the real world, Foster 1999).

Now is the time to begin to understand the value of people skills, networking skills, early career preparation, integrity, communication skills, dreams, and community service. All of these are critical for anyone who wants to succeed, and I believe most teenagers want to succeed (Teenagers preparing for the real world, Foster 1999).
