My opinion is that I sort of agree because not all situations are the same. Someone in class said that they had many options when their situation happened but while she said that, I was thinking in my head about my situation. My situation is that a long time ago, I had a friend who used to push me around and annoy me. He did that every single day and he never stopped. He would cheat in games, get me in trouble, blame me for everything and he always got away with it. One day, I had enough, I told him if he ever did something like that again, I promise you will get suspended for at least a day. And sure enough, he did something like that again and I thought to myself what should I do? Get him back for what he's done or tell an adult/teacher. I chose to tell the counsellor because I knew if I tried to get him back, this will keep on going on and going on. I went and told the counsellor and she said she will talk to him and to tell her if he did anything like that ever again. I thanked the counsellor for her advice and concern and continued my lunch.
The next day, I came to school and my friend had been talked to by the counsellor and he was very angry. He was so angry that he threatened me. As soon as he did that, I walked into the counselling office and told her. She then came very angrily outside and pulled him into her office. When he came out, he said that he was very sorry and he was going home for a couple of days. This proves that sometimes victims have many options but sometimes they also have 2 options. Those are some things that I think about Victim's options.
