Bullying, cyberbullying, and the estranged violent juvenile offender

A.) The rise of school violence perpetrated by the estranged violent student has caused a great
deal of public concern and widespread media coverage. Discuss the following topics and how
they are associated with school violence: bullying, cyberbullying, and the estranged violent
juvenile offender.
In school, bullying can be described as a systematic challenge which impacts all the
districts of school within the globe. According to the national centre for educational statistics,
one among 5 students has reported to be bullied in the school (Hymel and Susan 293). Research
studies highlights bullying as a repetitive aggressive nature which is characterized by power in
balance as well as intent towards causing harm. School students who are bullied often feel
powerless and threatened. Bullying can be considered as a destructive and persistent form of
violence which is often ignored in the school setting. The context of bullying is thoroughly
connected to the rising level of school violence that often leads to long lasting emotional,
psychological and physical challenges.
O'Brennan et al. (870) discusses cyber bullying as the context which occurs when
someone torments, humiliates or harass someone else with the use of technology that includes
social media platform, text messages, web pages, email and instant messages. Just like face to
face bullying, cyber bullying manifest itself in several kinds and characters of behavior. Some of
the most common cyber bullying examples which are prevalent among school students are;
flaming or posting derogatory comments on peers social web page, sharing pears private
information for public humiliation, impersonation or involving fake profiles for impersonating a
peer. These actions contributes to the violation in school environment followed by cyber
stalking, harassment, cat fishing, trolling, denigration and exclusion. One of the most common

factors influencing cyber-bullying is attitude among bullies (Whittaker, Elizabeth and Robin 20).
The anonymity of internet empowers the bullying as well as contributes to school violence.
Violent Juvenile offenders can be identified as those juveniles who have committed
serious range of offences that has hurt or seriously injured someone who requires some medical
attention. Some of the range of offences by the Juvenile offenders majorly includes physical
assault, robbery, kidnapping, arsan and endangerment. However estranged violent Juvenile
offenders are those who have been alienated towards social exclusion. These juveniles are
harmful for the school children since they contributes to the rise of school violence perpetrated
by estranged physical assault or violence. Their actions threatens the school environment and
contributes to the context of school violence.
B.) What types of intervention programs can be put in place in schools? How does a school
implement an intervention plan?
School violence can be considered as a generic term that is not limited to assault.
According to the research study school violence can be considered as a criminal justice issue that
has become a significant social and global problem (Chan, Heng and Dennis 102). However
school violence and the social issues regarding it can be conceptualize from ecological
perspective which involves family, individual and the community. Interventions for the
prevention of school violence can be categorized into targeted individual, community and family.
