Hello, I am back once again since I wrote about the Youtube bully clip scandal and the follow-up post. Today, the latest article update from The Star states that the mean girls have apologised to their victim. However, I do and still question to this day if those girls are truly sincere with their apology. My suspiscion is confirmed when I read another Malaysian online article (The Malay Mail) which reported that the mean girls are not one hundred percent remorseful and ashamed of their actions. The quoted sentence from The Malay Mail, “Three of the female bullies were smiling and even giggled as they were about to mutter “sorry” to the 13-year-old bully victim, who could only smile back.”, is just evident enough to show their real selves: insincere, lack of remorse and mean.
I hate to say this but this shows those mean and insincere girls have this “You can’t touch me” mentality and are taking the grown-ups (including their parents and the victim’s family) and the public for fools. Secondly, we should not be one bit surprised if they intend to repeat their bad behaviour onto their victim (possibly out for revenge) or any other possible victim. It is only a matter of time. There will be people disagreeing with what I wrote but then again, those mean girls show that they still choose to be monsters (or psychopaths they are, depending on how you view them). But there will be some people saying they need to be punished severely. To the school and the Ministry of Education, wake up and have the sense to give those girls the appropriate punishment that fit their wrongdoings. 14 days of suspension is NOT enough nor is their apology.
What says you about this latest update on those mean girls from Malaysia? Do you believe their apology is not one hundred and one percent sincere with their apology? What kind of punishment do you think is fit for them? Do you believe it is only a matter of time if they will repeat their bullying ways?
Trouble is, the girls do not see the problem with bullying… T^T
Perhaps you got a point. I can only bet those girls have no remorse within them
Shake some sense back to me if I’m talking nonsense, but I somehow think that if the bullies were punished harshly instead of through patient guidance, what if the punishment might backfire?
You could be right but then again who knows what if those mean girls are a bunch of hypocrites who will willingly take the punishment but at the same time always plotting and scheming to go and hurt someone else when the grown ups are not looking.
Yeah… you do have a point. Unless they truly repented or understand the seriousness of what they’ve done, there will be no change of behaviour.
True true
What has the world turn into? Age 14 n already a bunch of bullies who can hit another with books, strangle with necktie n cut the hair of the victim.
Try imagine when they reach adulthood, or worse before even reaching adulthood and other things to hit people besides books…
You said it well, PepperMint. I don’t want to imagine when they are 18 or 21 they are out there with a knife or a bottle of acid whilst threatening harm unto some poor victim. Or worse.
I agree that 2 weeks suspension and petty apologies aren’t enough to bring sense or realization for that matter towards those young girls. I’ve been a bully victim in the past and through my experience I’ve also seen others being bullied. Some are severe but most aren’t. Watching the video and I wondered why didn’t she fight back? The child clearly didn’t have any courage or confidence to do so. The authority shouldn’t be so reluctant to take more severe actions. Caning perhaps would be rather cruel( and believe me the after effects would only last for a short period of time) but why not try seeking psychiatric help? Community services?? etc. These girls need to learn what’s morality, humanity .. for heaven’s sake wake up !! The world isn’t what it is anymore, they should stop living in denial and think outta the box.
Thank you for the comment, Mellow. You are right that the child didn’t have any courage or confidence to fight back, however, I have to say she did not ask for the bullying to happen. Secondly, if one of those mean girls had at least her conscience stopped herself from hurting that victim, she could have put a stop to the humiliation which is too late to be taken down in the cyberworld right now. You are right too that the world is not what is used to be anymore. I too wish everyone wakes up and see how severe bullying is.
2 weeks suspension is like a 2-week school-free holiday for them
You said it well. 2 weeks is like a holiday to them and 2 weeks is not enough for them to reflect on their misdeeds. One to three months of suspension is enough to make them really think
