The green text is not the bullying, the green text is one of the new reasons the kids are getting their heads flushed in the toilet. The bullying has stayed the same, there are just new additional reasons to get bullied.
Oh. That’s disappointing, I guess there was some degree of wishful thinking in hoping bullying was actually easing up. My schools had next to no bullying + years of anti-hazing campaigns and I’d never actually heard of anyone dealing with the classic bullying stereotypes, so I thought we really were making progress.
I wonder if part of it was the setup of the schools, where we had only a few minutes between classes to transfer rooms. Not much time to flush heads in that span? But I also thought it was a common setup still used today so no idea.
It's probably a combination if reasons why it seems like there's less bullying.
Bullying is less physical now with online bullying existing. Also, it's difficult for outsiders to understand if someone is bullied if they don't bring it up.
E.g. some girl in my class was bullied in 8th grade, but it wasn't obvious to me as I wasn't close to them. For an outsider not paying particular attention making fun of someone a few times might just be friendly banter.
At least in my school there were 20min breaks after 90min of classes, so more than enough time to give someone a shower if they wanted. Edit: Altough I want to believe they had to be more careful so they chose less obvious forms of bullying.
