  9. “Bullying Law Puts New Jersey Schools on Spot” Open-Ended Response R = Restate opening statement Restate the question in the form of a sentence. Put in your own words, then ANSWER • The Anti-Bullying Bill of Rights went to effect on September 1, 2011.The new New Jersey anti-bullying law is aimed to protect students who become victims of other bullying behavior. It hopes to teach students the difference between immature and childish “telling and tattling” and the importance of reporting bullying behavior to their administrators or the police. In addition, the law hopes to teach students that “there is no such thing as an innocent bystander” and it is their responsibility to report bullying behavior done by other students. The article emphasizes the importance of reporting all behavior in efforts to protect all students from becoming a silent ship sailing alone in the night. The law reminds us that no student should feel left alone or become victim to other’s mean and abusive behavior. Lucila Hernandez, a school psychologists, supports this goal when she says, “We’re empowering children to use the term ‘bullying’ and to speak up for themselves and for others” (paragraph 21). The law hopes to teach students these necessary skills. After the death of Tyler Clementi, the Rutgers University student who chose to end his life after being bullied by his roomate, New Jersey lawmakers probably recognized the extreme need to protect students like Tyler and the dozens more who have ended their lives because they were afraid to speak up. This law encourages students to speak up and holds others who witness these obscene behavior responsible for their actions as well. We have seen this all too much in society. Just as numerous individuals like Martin Luther King Jr., Rosa Parks, and Robert Kennedy stood up for the cause they so passionately believed in, so is New Jersey. Just as the heroic individuals who have come before us have stood up for what is right, the new law requires students to do the same. New Jersey has become the pioneer of the 21st century.
