I grew up a victim of bullying. The most painful part isnt the dumb ass bullies that get in your face but rather people who sit and watch the abuse. I've come to the realisation that bullies grow up to become loosers. #LiteralLoosers. But today's bully videos i watch are so intense i'm now afraid for my kids. Bullying has now become a social media sport and schools take no responsibilty for our kids outside the school grounds. Lets all play our part. If you see a child being bullied, please intervene. It can be intimidating as i've witnessed in Maftown last year during a mob attack on a student ko CN Lekalake...thanx to the other gentleman who stopped his vehicle to intervene. My hashtag is simple, #TllapaABully. Don't be a witness tlheng!? Big up @iamlection for this campaign pic...
