Nowadays, pop music is getting more popular among the teenagers such as K-Pop and J-Pop. Music is a sound of soul and music can help to change a teenager’s emotions and attitudes, both positively and negatively. Most teenagers spend a lot of time listening to music.
Some songs are educative and contain positive messages that will bring good emotions to the teenagers. The positive impact of pop music also helps to relieve pressure and relaxes their minds as the teenagers are under a lot of stress due to the competition among students and the fast pace environment.
However, it will lead to negative impact if the teenagers keep listen to music that contains the negative lyrics or videos can influence the minds of the teenagers that still growing. Some of teenagers can’t even concentrate on studying while listening to music. If teenagers being too obsess with k-pop or j-pop they will neglect their studies. Besides that, some of the teenagers will dress up as what the artist wore in the music video to follow the popularity. Therefore, parents should get involved in the music their child listens to and parents should educate their child to listen to music that is beneficial to their learning.
In conclusion, pop music has greatly affected the behavior of teenagers. Therefore, parents should pay attention to what music their child are listening to as they grow up.

Nowadays, bullying in school is commonly seen. I always wonder why bullying happen in schools? School should be a safe place for students to gain knowledge and get prepared for their future. The reason of bullying happens as some of the parents do not give a correct concept to their child on how they should solve the problem when they meet. When the misunderstandings between two students occur, they will resort to physical and violence actions which is bullying.
The student who experiences the bullying will suffer from long life emotional effects. In fact, many students who are victims of bullying soon become adults who suffer from depression. Thus, they are unable to establish healthy relationships as adults when working in groups. The students will be affected academically as they cannot pay full attention in class and may play truancy in order to avoid bullies.
The school should hold some campaigns to reduce the bullying in school. The campaign can educate the students about the seriousness of the consequences of bullying and create awareness among students. In addition, Ministry of Education should ensure that all the teachers should undergo extensive training and know how to prevent bullying in school. Parents also play an important role in preventing bullying. Parents should give a correct concept to teach their child to avoid bullying and control their response to bullying.
In conclusion, both school and family members play an important role to prevent bullying cases happening in schools. I believe actions should be taken to reduce the number of bullying cases.
