Primary school tuition teacher and martial arts exponent Cheong Mei Yee believes that parents and teachers have a role to play when it comes to preventing bullying.

“Curbing bullying starts at home, by parents, and in schools, by teachers. If children are brought up to be kind and respect others, it carries on to their adulthood,” she says.
