Yesterday, I read a chirpstory about bullying at a high school in Jakarta Selatan.
It is a sad story.
What makes it sad is the fact that, someone re-told this story in his/her soc-med, without camouflaging the identity of the victim and the location.
Yes, he/she doesn't upload the picture.
Still, naming the victim and the location is something that I considered as not a wise move.
Does she/he know that mass media exposure to this case could cause to a child?
Bullying wouldn't happen if this child could stand up for him/herself in the front of his/her senior or school mate or whoever the bully is.
It happened, didn't it?
So how could you hope that he/she could handle the pressure of the mass media news coverage?
I know you are upset.
I know that you want people to sympathize with the victim and sharing this story to prevent this happen to the others child.
But, please don't share the victim identity.
