Bullying is a big problem in many schools. What do you think are the causes of this? What solutions can you suggest? Give reasons for your answer and include any relevant examples from your own knowledge or experience.

Bullying has always been one of the unpreventable issues in schools, no matter many causes and solutions have been suggested. I believe that there is one specific cause of
this
and
sports
could be used to deal with
this
issue.
To begin
with, it has to be admitted that a proclivity to exert
others
is deeply embedded in human nature, since
that is
how our ancestors survived in the past.
Therefore
, children merely want to check their own hierarchy in the classroom by having conflicts with peers.
For example
, they can easily get into a fight and make winners and losers out of it.
Furthermore
, through conflicts, they know not only about their hierarchy but
also
others
', which makes prey and predators.
Thus
, bullies who are certain that they are bigger and stronger than
others
at their age are not afraid to fight or harass
others
as well as will stay in their status, being sure of winning.
On the other hand
, just because bullying is difficult to deal with does not mean that there are no solutions.
Sports
can play a significant role in
this
.
Students
can nurture sportsmanship, which makes them pursue justice and fair ones. With
this
, not only will
students
give up fighting against bullies, but
others
also
will not let bullies annoy other
students
.
For instance
, unlike bullies,
students
lower in the chain of the hierarchy are less likely to fight back for their rights, falling prey.
However
, considering that
this
problem is highly attributed to physical strength and confidence, both of which
sports
can enhance, they can get away with it by themselves.
In addition
, other
students
, achieving sportsmanship, who are no longer watchers could possibly help them out. In conclusion, even though it has never been perfectly coped with, I believe that
sports
probably can relieve
this
issue so that children have a healthy and secure school life.
