Comment on Finland school shooting: Bullying was the motive for attack that killed boy, 12, police say
wahming@monyet.cc 5 months agoI know you’re being sarcastic, but I actually do agree. It was on the adults to make the situation better, not expect kids to be empathetic enough to not bully others

If kids can’t be expected to not bully others then what can the adults do? If a child bears no responsibility for their behaviour then how do you get them to change? I really don’t understand.

Educate the bully, punish the bully, remove opportunities for the bullying, whatever your preferred method. The onus is on the adults to prevent or put a stop to the bullying. The fact that things escalated as much as they did means that none of them stepped in, and that failure is on them.
