Bullying @ Colegio San Agustin

Bullying is a serious problem among both private and public schools. Recent news about bullying in Colegio San Agustin opened up the eyes of school authorities and government agencies on the seriousness of this issue among students, especially if not properly attended by.

What shocked me in the news was the accusation that a father pointed a gun to a student. First, how come the gun passed the school security? Such negligence, if proven true, must be acted upon by DepEd and CHED because such incident may result to a deeper problem. Although there are different accusations and denials on both sides, the very recent update in this issue showed that a father attesting to an old bullying issue in the same school and claiming that the school did nothing about it.

Bullying is a serious problem. This issue must be properly attended and resolved by government agencies, schools and parents as well.
