Bully Article:
Bullying is bad practice for society, commonly found in public gathering places such as on streets, schools, homes, and work places. The reason for mainly someone being bullied is based on their appearance, race or skin colour. There is verbal and physical bullying which can both hurt a person(s).While bullies often try to deny what they've done by saying 'it was only a joke', the truth is they mean it to hurt and it often does. Sometimes there can be physical harm, but there can also be psychological harm to people being bullied
- They can be so depressed they actually become ill
- Their self esteem can be really low
- They can become shy and withdrawn
- They can develop physical complaints, like constant stomach aches and headaches, which are brought on by stress
- The kind of bullying that seems to cause the most stress is rumour mongering
- Fear and anxiety can make someone being bullied truant from school

That was a good articleI belive all those things! This relates to the book because the boy bullies the ants and doesnt know what they must feel like. :)
I agree
bullying is not away to go.
So how can people help out?
call the help line.
Get help.
The school social worker.
I agree very strongly.
I think that bullying is located everywhere when they see or meet someone that is diffrent in many ways they aproach and attack with bad words.
This relates to the story because it has bullies and it was physical bullying.
In the story lucas gets bullied.
In result he feels like bullying something smaller than him and strangely he finds an ant hill to destroy when he feels down.
I agree with this article because it reminds me of myself sometimes. This made me feel that all of us are the same ,no one is different.This is related to the novel because it is how the ant felt about bullying and it gets back at the person who bullied the ant.
Very interestinq, didn't kn0w that.But unf0rtunately I d0n't agree, d0n't kn0w why aye...
SEAN the SKUXX...
What did it make you think?
It REALLY made me think about whos being bullied and why ? , and what was causing these problems in our society.It tells me that no matter how small the joke is or how little you mock that person, your hurting them each time you laugh.
What part did you agree with/why?
I agree with the part that says "Bullying is bad practice for society, commonly found in public gathering places such as on streets, schools, homes, and work places". Why? ,because YES bullying is verry bad for our socity and also verry bad practice too.

this article made me feel
that bullying isnt good .
it's not nice to bully someone
or to be bullied on .
BULLYING IS NOT THE WAY .
;
the part I agreed with was
" The reason for mainly someone being bullied is based on their appearance skin colour or race "
that is one of the main ideas that
causes bullying .
;
the part i disagreed with was
"While bullies often try to deny what they've done by saying 'it was only a joke', the truth is they mean it to hurt and it often does. " most bullies dont
even say it was a joke unless their scared of geting into trouble .
;
this character relates
to the one in ant bully because he
is a bully in the beggining then
after he turns into a goody good .
; Maah Tangata ♥
I agree at this because it is completely true, bullies can make people feel sad, depressed or even anger management and this is exactly what happens in a book called 'The Ant Bully" except the bullied are ants. I hope people do something about these bullies so the world can live in a better, safer and happier environment that is bully free. (Just like smoke free but better) PEACE!
I agree she is completely right. Bulling is not fair and it can make people feel sad and depreesed and can make peopletake there anger on other people. This this can evan make peolpe not go to school
bullying is bad don't bully you will be an ediat.
