PreWriting Essay 4

The topic I am choosing to do a narrative on is bullying. Bullying is a serious thing in today's society and it affects a lot of kids. When my dad was younger, he used to have a bully that would annoy him every single day, not only during school but after school as well. One day, the bully went to steal a toy my dad had in the supermarket and my dad was so fed up with it by this point he punched him in the face and broke his nose. The next day, the bully's father went to my dad's house to thank him for putting his son in his place. Where I am going with this is that bully prevention and discussions should be more relevant and serious in schools starting from a young age. I figured for evidence I could gain scholarly sources about bully statistics and the psychological impact that it has. Also, since the story is about my father, I will be able to get real and interesting quotes from him and how he felt at the time. The only problem I see writing about this topic is having enough detail and quality to the story part of it considering it is not my personal experience.
