Abstract
Bullying is a pervasive issue in schools, characterized by intentional, hurtful behavior with an imbalance of power. This research draws insights from the film "Better Days" to explore strategies for reducing bullying. The study focuses on the roles of schools, teachers, and students in combatting bullying. It emphasizes the importance of awareness campaigns to break the silence surrounding bullying, the integration of psychological counseling courses to nurture resilience and empathy, and the implementation of an effective reporting system to foster accountability. Additionally, the research highlights the transformative power of teacher-student relationships in raising awareness and modeling positive behavior. It also underscores the significance of students' self-realization and seeking help as a means of empowerment. Finally, the study discusses the complexities of legal action against bullying and the role of bystander intervention in cultivating empathy and unity. By implementing these strategies, schools can create environments where bullying is actively addressed, fostering safer and more compassionate communities.
