Tell me about a time when you have bullied or have been bullied.
What happened? (When, where, what, why..)
What did you do about it?
Was the bully ever remorseful?
If you have not been bullied or bullied yourself, tell me what you would do if you were bullied. Why would you do that? What would be the end outcome?

Ethics?
Take a look at this cartoon. How does this show the lack of ethics in the classroom?

One time in third grade, I was in a huge fight with one of my closest friends. From my point of view, I was totally right and she was totally wrong. At one point I was so angry that I said a lot of mean stuff to her about how wrong she was and how annoying she was being, which was pretty bad for third grade. She was also saying bad stuff to me, so I guess we were both being bullied. The day after I realized that it was stupid what we were fighting over and I didn't want to lose my friend over something so small. When we got back to school, I apologized and apparently she felt the same way. Thankfully, we ended up making up and everything went back to normal.
Once I was bullied in a really minor case when I offered a suggestion or idea during class for a project, and everyone shouted me down, especially the one instigator bully, because they all wanted to do something different. I did not really do anything about it because it wasn't very important to me, although I did feel a little ganged-up on. I don't think the bully ever felt remorseful because they probably didn't know they made me feel a little unimportant. In this particular case, everyone can't always get their way so it wasn't really bad.
Today I unknowingly bullied my friend Darmon in school. I jokingly pushed him after he said a joke. He fake cried as a joke, but he might have been hiding his real emotions. I immediately was full of lugubrious remorse.
A time I have been bullied was in the hallway during school. When I was walking down the hall so and so he me in the back of the head. And every time I would walk buy so and so they would do the same thing over and over again. When I finally got annoyed by it I told them to stop and if they didn't I would tell a teacher. I don't really think they were very remorseful because they still do it sometimes..
When I was at IC in third grade, certain people became very mean and bullied me. I tried to be nice to them, but they were not very nice to me. Eventualy one of the bullies at the end of the year came up to me and told me that he was very sorry for what he had done.
one time i was bullied at a football game. I was playing at a field and a kid pushed me down. i got up and pushed him on the ground right back. he was very sorry about it later.
I was bullied in 5th grade and 6th grade for being a Jonas Brothers fan. People would make fun of me because I liked them. I am a proud Jonas fan and I didn't let them get to me.
