Why there are bullies?
why there are "bullies" in my own perception, there are many scenarios and I believe this is one of them, I personally observed a bully person who grew up in a messy family, and witnessed his\her mother being beaten by his own father, seeking attention to parents, being forsaken by his own brothers, so that mental aspect accumulated and turn into hatred, what he sees in his own house, will be his/her own image outside, they bully other kids they envy, they bully kids to be relevant, they want to get the attention who they lack to seek in their own house.

why did bully a serious matter?
How did I come up with this issue?
It all started with a phone call Yesterday afternoon 11/23/22
I had this news about my cousin whose teacher called my mother pertaining to what my cousin did, he is involved in a bullying scheme, where he and his accomplice planned to steal shots with all their classmates and post them to their own Group chat from "messenger" where they mock the appearance, and here goes a girl who they captured some shots zoom right into her face and insulted the girl's appearance, it didn't end on social media, even in their own room, they laugh til the girl cried, and end up goes absent for days.
now this matter reach their adviser(teacher) and without hesitation, she decided to call my mother about the issue and needs to visit the school guidance with my cousin for disciplinary action, my mother is their guardian for now because their parents are away for work, they live in our house temporarily so it's my mom's responsibility to teach these kids lesson, my mom is already aware with the matter and waiting furiously for the kids to come back home from work. she is so angry and furious that I can't paint whats gonna happen next. it's like if I'm in the situation theres nothing I can do but cry while my mother's mouth is like an unstoppable machine gun haha
The bully is home
my cousin is already home, and he received a ton of hurtful words from my mother mouth out of furiousity, my mother is also a teacher thats why she dont want this kind of matter in her own house, she even confiscate his cell phone and received a slap on the cheek, (I remember my self at this scene receiving a slap due to my stubbornness hahaha) and told him to leave the house if he will not learn his lesson, my cousin cried a lot and explained that he is the one taking the photos but it's his other accomplice who triggered and mock the girl.
I guess he will learn his lesson
Now, why my cousin is bully?
Because as my observation, I always see the environment he grew up, his parents always quarrel because his father always goes home drunk, and they always fight multiple times, it even comes to the moment when her mother called the police because his father was already out of control due to the influence of liquor, as a kid, kids love to seek attention where he never had, I always feel pity for my cousin that's why my mom never fails to educate us.
This gives a lesson to all of us parents
to never fight in front of your kids, give time for your child, guide them always, and teach them what's good and what's bad, this is a lesson for me as well as I myself am already a parent now.
Apparently, my mom already called the father of the girl who they bullied and agreed on some terms where they don't want any of these to happen again because bullying is extremely prohibited because there is already a law where all those found to be engaged in the act of bullying regardless of age and discernment will have to comply with civil liabilities including a penalty ranging fromĀ P50,000 to P100,000.
!!!BULLYING IS A SERIOUS MATTER!!!

I hope he will learn his lesson and not do it again.
This reminds me of our youngest. It was only later on when he was older that I have learned that he was bullied in school and the teachers knew it. Sometimes he would sit beside the teacher so he will not be bullied. To his credit, he said he fought back. While the bullying was not extreme that it was physical, still bullying is bullying no matter what form.
