subscribe button and if you've ever been
bullied why do you hit that thumbs up
for me normally on this channel I try to
keep it light and entertaining but every
so often I come across a story that's so
heartbreaking I feel it's important to
raise awareness later in this video I'm
gonna tell you the opinion of an expert
on why kids bully other kids and what
can be done to stop it
so make sure you stick around for that I
don't know what it is about bullies and
picking on kids that are different but
it seems to be a problem across the
board I was bullied throughout my life
because I was different and it had a
really huge impact on my mental health
things did get better eventually but I
want you to know if you're a bully I
hope this next story serves as a lesson
to you just because someone is different
that doesn't mean they deserve to be
picked on thirteen-year-old karanvir
Chima was a smart popular boy at his
school Perkins C of E School in
Greenford according to his parents he
was so bright he could have been
anything he wanted unfortunately Coran
had some pretty serious allergies he was
severely allergic to all dairy products
he was not only allergic to dairy he was
also allergic to wheat gluten eggs nuts
and to top everything off he was
asthmatic and suffered from a topic
eczema pretty long list for this reason
the food he ate couldn't come anywhere
near all the food I listed so he had his
own refrigerator at home
Coran knew he had a lot of limitations
on the food that he could eat but he
knew how to manage his condition it
means that he probably told his
classmates and teachers about his
allergies which means they all knew to
some degree the severity of his
allergies well I guess one of his
classmates didn't really get the message
because Quran was chased by his
classmate who then proceeded to shove
cheese down his shirt at around 11:30
a.m. in June of last year quran
immediately went into anaphylactic shock
just touching the cheese was enough for
him to have a severe allergic reaction
he didn't even have to eat it to make
matters worse someone called 911 told
the operator that Quran was suffering
only from an allergic reaction it didn't
really sound that serious but when
paramedics got to the scene at around
11:40 7:00 a.m. they found correct
gasping
for air and full of hives while they
tried to save his life he was completely
unconscious and stopped breathing
shortly after paramedics arrived
according to the paramedic on the scene
Kiera no pot on arrival he immediately
knew his condition was life-threatening
and that he had a high risk of going
into cardiac and respiratory arrest Oh
Pat tried treating him with pure tone
and inhaler and an injection pen used
for anaphylactic shock but it became
clear that Coran needed more help while
a pot was calling more paramedics to the
scene he was informed by his colleague
that Coran had stopped breathing while
they waited for backup he performed CPR
on Kuran gave him adrenaline and used a
defibrillator
Coran was put on a stretcher and taken
to the ambulance he was alive for ten
days after but died in his hospital bed
at Great Ormond Street Hospital on July
9th of last year so it's been an entire
year since the incident and the 13 year
old bully who was not named because he's
a minor was removed from the school and
was arrested on suspicion of attempted
murder but hasn't been charged all
that's really happened to him at this
point is that he was expelled from the
school quran's family was present in
court this past Wednesday September 19th
where they heard the testimony of the
paramedics it's clear that they want
justice for their son Karen's mother
Rena Chima said to reporters that they
want answers she's devastated at the
mother after losing her son and her
family has lost their brother all of
this really makes you wonder why do kids
bully in the first place and what can
parents do to stop it
most schools try to combat bullying with
a zero-tolerance policy but it still
seems to happen far too often and this
time it cost a child his life so why do
kids bullied because simply put they get
something out of it according to Toni
Volk of Brock University the first thing
that predisposes kids to bullying is
that it's effective at getting what they
want
they want to get something out of it
popularity sex resources the best place
at lunch this doesn't just go for kids
this is true for adults too now here's
the dark side of this whole issue
bullying is about power people bully
other people because they likely feel
powerless in another aspect of their
life be it at home with their parents or
maybe a bully sees another child that
has something that they don't so they
see gaining power over that child as a
means of getting back the power that
they don't have it could be very true
that a bully has been exposed to
behavior at home that makes them feel
powerless but that's not true across the
board it could just be that they feel
inadequate it depends on the person so
what can parents do to stop their child
from bullying other kids
bullies likely start showing behavior
where they're angry or depressed it's
important for parents to talk to the
children to try to understand why their
child is acting out then parents need to
make it clear that bullying behavior is
not acceptable and they should also
suggest that their child apologize to
the victim bullying has a long-term
impact on mental health a parent also
needs to look at their own behavior and
really think about how it could affect
their child's behavior it's not just up
to the child to set a good example it's
also up to their parents alrighty guys
that is all I have for you on that story
