In todays educational system there is one very large problem. Anti-BGL language has hit the playgrounds, hallways, cafeterias of children across the globe. Anti-BGL language is commonly used upon peers to degrade each other. Teachers and Faculty, do NOT know how to intervene upon this. Teachers should be told and taught how to deal with discrimination against peers and intervening appropriately.

I am aware that I only wrote a small entry, it is mostly because I am looking for more input on the given topic before doing so!

I also am against Anti-BGL language but maybe try to go into more depth about your opinion. You only wrote a paragraph.
