Educating Kids on Bullying and Teaching to Love Others by Deveoping Feeling of Worth in Yourself.

I left a high school because of the very little punishment of bullying and no education on the topic. This school doesn't teach kids not to bully or how to deal with taking it. Recently a student ran away because of rumors and harassment from other students and this could have easily been avoided if the school educated kids on rumors and bullying and its effects. He has been missing for almost 1 month. When I would go to a counselor for help in the past it would always turn to "how are your grades and how can we improve them?" Teachers would tell us, if you take this test then we get more money. And that is all this school cares for. Its ratings and income rather than its students. I want it to be mandatory that Bullying and Self Worth be taught in all grade schools. Kids are hurting.
