School bullying is a serious problem and needs to be dealt with sensitively. Its disturbing and destructive for both parties, the one who bullies and the one who get bullied. When I was in school, I myself was a bully but never in a manner that harmed anyone. It was just a little over power on certain occasions. Yes, in that moment it all looked fun but then later in life I did realize how wrong some of these actions were. There are many students who face long term bullying consequences, especially if it is done very harshly at a very young age. Some children even give up their lives over getting bullied. Sometimes the one who bullies when they see the consequences it becomes a trauma for them as well. A little fun here and there is ok, but it should not reach to a level where one's mental and emotional health comes under attack.
When my son was in school, he was a timid child unlike me, and I was always worried for him, that he would get bullied, due to his over sensitiveness. I would do a regular check with him on his school environment, and also in his friend circle. There was one boy who was a big bully in his circle and I always kept an eye on him that he would not take wrong advantage of my son. I had regular conversations with my son and would keep encouraging him to share with me everything that happened on a daily basis with me while I am not around him. If I would notice any kind of behavior change in him I would get deeper in to knowing the cause. My world revolved around him day and night, till I felt it was safe for him to fly out on his own.
I believe that parents should build up that level of comfort with children where they can come and share every single thing with them. At least one parent should give that freedom. Some times the strictness of parents stops the child to come and discuss their problems with them. If one parent is very strict then the other one should be equally comforting and giving the confidence to the child to discuss about their life.

Horror movie is a total no for me. I enjoy comedy, romantic, biopics and sci-fiction movies. In the last contest itself I mentioned about the movie which has left a deep impact on me so I will give this one a pass for today. But in short, I enjoy light hearted movies which gives out good energy and that's why horror movies are a total no for me.
