Japanese campus bullying draws attention to the need for multi-party cooperation to protect ＂you as a teenager＂

　　Cctv newsIn Japan, campus bullying is one of the serious social problems. According to the report on campus bullying in 2018 released by the Ministry of Education, Culture, Sports, Science and Technology of Japan, in 2018, there were more than 540,000 school bullying incidents in Japan, with an average of 409 school bullying incidents per 10,000 underage students. Let’s pay attention to the problem of school bullying in Japan through the experience of a victim whose personal information needs to be protected.

　　In a small office in Setagaya, Tokyo, 42-year-old Abe Shangtai has been providing assistance to the victims of campus bullying for 15 years. Among the requests for help from campus bullying received by Abe, there is also a widespread concern in Japanese society. In 2016, in the dormitory of Oshima Merchant Shipping College in Yamaguchi Prefecture, Japan, a student committed suicide by jumping off a building due to campus bullying shortly after the start of school. A jun, a student in his dormitory, suffered a great mental blow.

　　What Jun A didn’t expect was that his nightmare had just begun, and he soon became the victim of campus bullying. There is a rumor among the students that Mr. A is a murderer, and even the students who bullied suicide students in the past turned to Mr. A as the bullying object. Since May 2016, A Jun has been subjected to campus bullying such as abuse, insult and even violence.

　　A year after Mr. A was bullied on campus, his mother discovered the abnormality of the child and was very shocked. She immediately found the school, but what they didn’t expect was that it was not easy to get justice as a victim of campus bullying.
　
　　In order to legalize the problem of campus bullying, in 2013, the Japanese Parliament passed the school bullying Preventive Countermeasures Promotion Law. However, it is difficult to collect evidence of bullying, identify bullying facts and curb bullying. At present, the third-party investigation committee formed around the campus bullying suffered by Mr. A has identified the existence of bullying, and the follow-up treatment is still under discussion.
