The public issue of student bullying has not only promoted formal governance but also subjected public perception and policies to the challenges of offence-related cases.In the early stage of formal govemance in China,the excessive leniency in dealing with student bullying behaviors has been widely criticized,and the misinterpretation of the zero-tolerance policy is also trendily being deemed"correct interpretation"in the legalization process.This misaligned way of thinking has led the public to place their hopes on dealing with student bullying behaviors afterwards to achieve the goal of governing student bullying,thereby supporting a tendency towards severe punishment.Therefore,it is necessary to distinguish between student bullying behaviors and student bullying phenomena from the two dimensions of individual case handling and similar cases prevention and governance.For the former,the philosophy of"leniency without indulgence"should be adhered to,while for the latter,the theory of governance should be relied upon to carry out front-end governance towards the growing-up environment.The prevention and governance of student bullying require standalone legislation,a sound probation system,and especially the establishment of a comprehensive framework of prevention and governance with the govemment playing a leading role,families taking primary responsibilities,schools assuming major responsibilities,and social participation,so as to"keep the issue of student bullying solved within the school"as far as possible and constantly improve the mechanism of relief and restoration.
