Ten-year-old, Siyavuya Mabece, says she was inspired to write a book about bullying because it is a challenge globally.
“Bullying is a big problem; it is a topical issue globally and locally. Kids end up killing themselves because of it and it is horrible to lose innocent lives. Secondly, kids are the future, if we keep on killing ourselves, what is going to happen? There is not going to be any future. Who is going to take over the government? Who is going to be the new president?”
The book titled: Enough! Stop Bullying, helps children to identify the signs of bullying.
“The book explains the types of bullying, which is cyberbullying on social media, social bullying where you are bullied because of your culture and physical bullying which is like punching, making physical contact with that person.”
Mabece encourages other children to report bullying as soon as it happens.
