honestly, schools should have an entire class to teach kids that bullying is not okay. the trauma caused by bullying can last a lifetime, affecting mental health, confidence, relationships, and more
As a deterministic person, I believe that more science should be involved in the education system regarding raising kids, including educating families. It seems there are three main topics:
- agression
- theory of mind
- empathy
Here are some sources for those interested in a scientific approach from Robert Sapolsky:
- Are Humans Hardwired to Be Cruel to Each Other?
