Do you agree with Rachel Simmon's view that the girls hurt it each other because of the way they are socialized to deal with conflict?

Why do people not stand up for the victim?

Even as a child, I never knew how to deal with conflict so I reacted similarly. This cause more conflict and more problems, and makes conflict a norm. Kids then get used to the ideas that fighting and hurting others is okay. ]]> 2019-01-18 15:47:02 UTC https://padlet.com/gina_gianakas/vss2g25ktjnz/wish/322173681 https://padlet.com/gina_gianakas/vss2g25ktjnz/wish/322173775 2019-01-18 15:47:13 UTC https://padlet.com/gina_gianakas/vss2g25ktjnz/wish/322173775 https://padlet.com/gina_gianakas/vss2g25ktjnz/wish/322173782 I belive that girls social bully because they want to assert their dominance in the group. They want to achieve power over the entire group by excluding others to make them see more small in comparison to them. It's one of the reasons why bullies become so popular.
I agree because the way how girls bully is through socialization and is more verbal rather than social. They try to gain power over the group by making others look weak using words.
People dont stand up for bullying mainly because they do not want to get involved, and they feel like they will be bullied in the future for standing up for the victim. While people do it, it is not the right thing to do since you are allowing bullying to advance rather then taking action. ]]> 2019-01-18 15:47:14 UTC https://padlet.com/gina_gianakas/vss2g25ktjnz/wish/322173782 https://padlet.com/gina_gianakas/vss2g25ktjnz/wish/322173801 Girls usually engage with social bullying due to social pressure. This sometimes is the cause for some girls to feel and look more powerful and dominant when compared to their victim. Also, when girls are bullying other girls, there tends to be a group of girls which usually follow along or stand beside the bully. This might make the girls feel as if they won’t be targeted by the bully if they just obey and follow alongside the bully rather than stand up for the victim. ]]> 2019-01-18 15:47:16 UTC https://padlet.com/gina_gianakas/vss2g25ktjnz/wish/322173801 https://padlet.com/gina_gianakas/vss2g25ktjnz/wish/322173948 The reason that most people choose not to stand up for victims can be attributed to the threat of being bullied themselves, and partially by the bystander effect. When a person see’s the power struggle involved in bullying, they evaluate the threat level and the possibility of being bullied themselves, which decreases the chance of standing up for the victim. The bystander was effect can play a big factor in wether someone stands up for a victim, if there are more people in the crowd near the bullying, then people are less likely to stand up because they think that someone else in the crowd will do it.

Either their parents or the school have failed to teach them the proper skills to use in resolving conflicts.

I disagree with her assessment as girls treating one another in this way is fairly universal and happens outside of he Western Hemisphere.

People don’t stand up for the victim beacauae doing so would highlight themselves and draw attention from the bully. Helping the victim makes the the person a possible target

It’s not a bossy feeling, it’s more like knowing that you’re depended on and looked up to, even if it’s in fear.
Girls don’t usually do much aside social bullying, which means the focus of the documentary was how to explain why kids are engaging in the activity, and the answer they arrived at was that girls are just kinda petty.

Not really a bad thing, but they’re willing to cut off relationships and close friends to fit in with the ‘cooler kids’, or because that’s what all their friends are saying to do. Girls only hurt each other because they know that’s all they can do.

The victims are bullied for a reason. Sucks to say it, but it’s true. Victims don’t fight back, don’t have friends, can’t speak up, and are easy to target.
No one stands up for them because the bully is always the stronger presence. If someone stands up for a victim, they’ll only receive the same treatment, and doing that is just jot worth it to some people (to most people).]]> 2019-01-18 19:41:51 UTC https://padlet.com/gina_gianakas/vss2g25ktjnz/wish/322292239 https://padlet.com/gina_gianakas/vss2g25ktjnz/wish/322292620 2019-01-18 19:42:50 UTC https://padlet.com/gina_gianakas/vss2g25ktjnz/wish/322292620 https://padlet.com/gina_gianakas/vss2g25ktjnz/wish/322293294 2019-01-18 19:44:15 UTC https://padlet.com/gina_gianakas/vss2g25ktjnz/wish/322293294 https://padlet.com/gina_gianakas/vss2g25ktjnz/wish/322293337 Gig]]> 2019-01-18 19:44:22 UTC https://padlet.com/gina_gianakas/vss2g25ktjnz/wish/322293337 https://padlet.com/gina_gianakas/vss2g25ktjnz/wish/322293619 2019-01-18 19:45:04 UTC https://padlet.com/gina_gianakas/vss2g25ktjnz/wish/322293619 https://padlet.com/gina_gianakas/vss2g25ktjnz/wish/322293935 2019-01-18 19:45:47 UTC https://padlet.com/gina_gianakas/vss2g25ktjnz/wish/322293935 https://padlet.com/gina_gianakas/vss2g25ktjnz/wish/322294323 2019-01-18 19:46:35 UTC https://padlet.com/gina_gianakas/vss2g25ktjnz/wish/322294323 https://padlet.com/gina_gianakas/vss2g25ktjnz/wish/322294650 2019-01-18 19:47:28 UTC https://padlet.com/gina_gianakas/vss2g25ktjnz/wish/322294650 https://padlet.com/gina_gianakas/vss2g25ktjnz/wish/322294772 2019-01-18 19:47:47 UTC https://padlet.com/gina_gianakas/vss2g25ktjnz/wish/322294772 https://padlet.com/gina_gianakas/vss2g25ktjnz/wish/322436218 yeet
