Journal #16: Risky Business Draft; Hazing
Topic: Prevention of Hazing
Thesis: Hazing creates risks of harm to students; therefore, it should be prevented.
Draft:
Hazing is a realistic test and a task involving harassment, abuse or humiliation used as a way to intiatiating a person into a gang, club, sports team, or even just to hang out with a group of friends. Students/teens use hazing for "group bonding" and to embarass the new members. Hazing creates harm and it should be prevented. Students shouldn't be able to do that anymore because of the outcomes.
Others may think that hazing can be a good thing because it's like and intiation and team bonding for teens, for sports, and other group activities. Students haze because they want to get to know everyone and bond with them and build a bigger relationship between friends. They haze by doing activities to get to know each other. If students haze responsibly, hazing can be safe. Being able to bond with each other or build bigger relationships shouldn't be taken away from the children.
Hazing shouldn't be allowed because students use and abuse hazing to harm, humiliate, and embarass other students that just want to join the group, sport, or activities. Students use others that want to join the group. If they are being humiliated and embarassed, they wouldn't feel part of the group, they would just feel used and abused. They get harmed and hurt physically and emotionally. Hazing is divisive and dangerous, it should be prevented and banned. Most of the time students are being used because others with haze and hurt them, but most of the time, they wouldn't become part of the group. Hazing is a very serious and dangerous issue and it should be prevented before others get really hurt.
Not only does hazing hurt the students that are being abused, but it hurts future generations because it has a bad influence on them. Hazing should be prevented because it is setting a bad example for the youngens; teaching them that it is okay to criticize, humiliate, embarass, abuse, and harm other students. It's also teaching them that hazing is fun and that they should do it because the older kids are doing it. It brings to the topic of peer pressure. They are being pressured and so are the victims, they are being pressured to do things that humiliate all to just join a group. Because there is hazing, movies are being made with hazing in it, and that is also pressuring everyone and setting a bad examples.
No one deserves to go through pain that they shouldn't have to go through, but some have suffered from it and it caused them pain. If hazing was prevented a long time ago, it wouldn't have hurt a lot more people. Till this day, students are hazing, not only students, but adults. They are all setting bad examples, but also the media. Hazing is very harmful and embarassing and no one should have to suffer from it. Therefore, hazing can and should be prevented, it causes harm to all kinds of students and it should be taken away.
