       Should bullying be taken more seriously than it is?

       Sticks And Stones May Break Their Bones But Words Will Hurt
       Them Psychologically.
       
       Yes, it is true that words and insults cannot cause any physical
       harm to children but does that mean it would not hurt them at
       all? Psychologically, children can still be affected and that in
       some ways may be more dangerous than physical harm. What
       children hear from young will stay in their minds. Whether they
       are conscious of it or not, it does affect how they behave. For
       example, if children are constantly told they are ugly, they
       would not be confident about themselves and may be socially shy
       because of how they think they look to everyone else. If they
       are told they are useless, they will grow up thinking they are
       worthless and will amount to nothing and this will affect the
       way they act and think. If people keep hurling insults at these
       kids, they might feel that they are not loved or wanted and it
       can lead to depression and this may lead to suicidal behaviour.
       A little thing goes a long a way. So yes, words cannot break
       their bones but words can break them emotionally.
