Bullying in "The Kite Runner"

In this book, many kids are bullied. One of the boys that gets bullied is Amir. Amir gets bullied by Assef. Assef is an older boy that makes fun of Amir and even abuses him in harmful ways. Hassan, who is Amir’s half-brother saw how Assef bullied and even raped Amir but he did not do anything about it because he was too scared. Once Amir found out that Hassan did not help him Amir began to bully Hassan.

Bullying is something that should never be done because it doesn’t make anybody feel better, it just makes them feel worse. Even though bullying happens all the time, and everyone does it sometimes, it is still not the right thing to do.
