Commentary - Stop bullying in our schools
It is suspected that around 160,000 students miss school each day for fear of being bullied.

This shows that bullying is affecting kids everywhere and needs to be stopped. Bullying affects the one bullied, the bully him or herself and the people around the bullied.
