Bullying in German High Schools

Bullying in German High Schools


Last night I saw a news program on TV.

A high school girl in Germany said that some students have been bullied and got subject to discrimination. “It is due to clothing they wear,” said the girl with a clear-cut face, though not blonde.

A teacher of the German high school told that introduction of the school uniform would reduce that kind of troubles among students.

Germany looks locked somehow geographically, while the nation has a huge potential of expansion of its human energy and activities.

The U.K. is faced with the Atlantic and the world beyond; France and Spain are faced with the Atlantic and the Mediterranean as well as the world beyond; and even Italy with the Mediterranean and the world beyond. But Germany, once called the Great Roman Empire, is only surrounded by other European countries.

As Japan is faced with the vast Pacific Ocean leading to the New Continents as well as the great Eurasian continent over the Sea of Japan and the East China Sea, its people are fundamentally enjoying a healthy and natural atmosphere.

But, it is true that there are a few children who commit a suicide in Japan almost every year because of bullying at school.

Jesus Christ said when you are bullied because of your being faithful you should be blessed; and thus you should forgive enemies.

In my view, without faith, situations should be basically different eventually.
