After reading 13 Reasons Why, I finished it in two days. The scary thing is that these dramas, which seem very pompous and hypocritical to many people, actually coincide perfectly with many fragments in my memory. Every character in the show, with the exception of Bryce, corresponds more or less to someone who has been in my life, even myself. The clips in the play also brought many past events that seem to have been dusted up like a slideshow. It's just that no one around me committed suicide because of this, but who knows? After all, "I don't know Hannah well."
Let me tell you about my own experience. My primary school is quite special. It is not based on student status but is selected from the whole city. Many people have broken their heads and want to squeeze in. At least half of the people who study in this school are the second generation of officials and the second generation of rich. The average quality and grades can be said to be among the best in the city. At that school, school bullying often happened before my eyes. My junior high school was the best junior high school in the city at the time, and in that school I witnessed the worst bullying I have ever seen, the mothers of girls who were bullied and even the staff of the local education bureau. My high school is a provincial key high school, where bullying happens at the same time. My university is a very ordinary third batch of colleges in the province, and again, I can see the bullying happening. I don't know if it's a coincidence or normality, but the truth is, from elementary school to college, school bullying really happened in my class, right in front of my eyes.
Compared to the easily detectable physical harm, the school bullying I have witnessed is more of a mental devastation. Together, they mocked a classmate they didn't know well, and avoided it as if they had seen a ghost. They told some hearsay and even made up stories, insulted, slandered, and pushed, just like Hannah's classmates. In many cases, these behaviors are seen as a joke in the eyes of parents and teachers.
If there's one point where 13 Reasons Why isn't real enough, it's that the bullied classmates I've witnessed are often not as kind and approachable as Hannah. In reality, children who are bullied often have weaknesses that are easily attacked. Maybe they don't look good, maybe their movements are half a beat, maybe their demeanor is very dull, maybe their thinking is very strange... These, can they become Why are they being bullied? Or do other people take it for granted when they get ridiculed and teased about it?
Poor people have something to hate, don't they? Only perfect victims are qualified victims, right?
To this day, I often think back to the children who were humiliated and ridiculed, and I could literally see them drooping their heads, blushing, and trying to get rid of it all without saying a word. However, year after year, day after day, and even every moment, they were harassed and shoved by almost all of their classmates, not to mention the slander and ridicule behind them. Are they sad or angry? Have they ever thought of running away from it all? A few years later, the students went their separate ways. We may still remember those gossips, but have we ever wondered for a moment how the kid who was bullied is doing now?
Not every child who is bullied is Hannah, and so much bullying cannot happen to the same person, it is these dramatic and escalating bullying that fall on Hannah again and again, Let her choose death in the end. But doesn't it mean that no one died because of this, and that nothing happened? In other words, is it because the bullying is not focused on one person and pushes people to a desperate situation, these behaviors are harmless? Yeah, if Hannah hadn't died, if Hannah hadn't made those tapes, wouldn't the 13 go on with their lives? They gave Hannah flowers that Hannah didn't like at all, put up all kinds of posters thinking of Hannah, held commemorative parties, and maybe held a party. No one feels that Hannah's death has anything to do with them, and no one reflects on what they have done more or less to Hannah. As many have commented, each of these 13 reasons is Hannah's fuss. Maybe these 13 guys would have been better off if Hannah had calmed down and Move on, wouldn't they?
Since I was a child, I have been good at observing words and expressions. I know how to adjust what to do and what not to do in the future through my behavior and the evaluation of the behavior in the eyes of others. To a certain extent, you can say that I am a smooth person, which is destined that I will never do it. It's the one being bullied, at least not always. I'm not the bullied kid, but am I bullying others? I dare not say. But what parent of a child can be sure that his child is not one of them? Just as Clay's mother was worried about Clay being bullied at school, Clay said, what if he was the one who was bullying? How can a child who is obedient, sensible, and kind in his parents' minds bully others? So, things they don't want to see, they'll never know. Just as Hannah's parents don't know why Hannah committed suicide, Clay's parents don't know why Clay is so worried.
In many cases, it is not only the bullying party that makes the campus bullying around you continue to occur, but may also include all bystanders who witnessed it. I don't know how the classmates who used to bully are doing now, will they be like me, at some point, those scenes or the girl's face will flash in their minds, and there will be a little bit of guilt in their hearts , regret the ridicule and humiliation at that time? Maybe, they didn't. But many times, many things, make me think of them and make me feel ashamed. Just like the tape Hannah left to Clay, Clay fell into deep self-blame. Maybe, I shouldn't share the scandal of a person everyone hates with my friends; maybe, when there is no one, I should follow my own conscience a little bit, and have more friends with the bullied classmate chat. But in fact, what should not be done, I did, what should be done, I did not.
Rest assured, I certainly won't get too caught up in it. However, I am concerned about the indifference of many. As many have said, these so-called bullying are all too normal in school life, but is it really a fuss? In the past two years in the media, cases of school bullying leading to self-harm and suicide of students can be seen everywhere, and this does not include those that cause psychological shadows or even induce mental illnesses on children. I don't know if the classmates around me who were bullied at school have ever self-harmed or suffered from psychological shadows, but I can be sure that living in such an environment that makes them uncomfortable every day, they are definitely not healthy physically and mentally, and they, Probably not even a word to the school teachers and their parents.
These things are unwilling to be seen by the parents and teachers of the students. Perhaps, they will never know that their children and students have been tortured for such a long time in the class. However, these things did not happen.
School bullying, as 13 Reasons Why describes it, and as I have personally experienced it, happens every minute and every second. Maybe, these school bullying is not so serious, maybe, the bullied children can finally survive. However, those seemingly cruel and cruel plots and those seemingly fussy resistances are staged every day, and your seemingly innocent, smart children or diligent, civilized and polite students are likely to It is the perpetrator, victim, or bystander of school bullying.
