Joy Will Come in the Morning: a Study of Death

An adolescent goes through puberty, school, relationships, & all the changes in between. A death can be a traumatic experience for a growing adolescent. An adolescent’s development is affected both physically & emotionally when experiencing a loss. Stories of loss through death are weaved throughout the pages of the Bible. It gives accounts of people losing loved ones & how they grieved their loss. The process of grief & coping is handled differently with adolescents. When death happens during the formative years of an adolescent, they need to have the support of those around them to help cope.

That’s a lot of BULL…ying

Bullying is defined as the maltreatment of another being. Bullying was done in the presence of the individual(s) being mistreated. The human reaction to the treatment of an abusive being was present. As time and technology progressed, so has bullying. Cyber bullying has come from the progression. Cyber bullying removes the human reaction from the abusive party. The abusive party can be anonymous and as brutal as they choose. This not only affects the psychological and identity development of the bullied, but also the actions the individual(s) takes to handle the maltreatment.
