This text shows the audience about the seriousness of buulies in Australia, based on the writer stated so many statement that contribute to the negative sides of bullies. This shows how the writer want to tell us about the severe of bullies.

In reading 2.2,Lee(1992)’Languange,perspective,ideology’ have stress that from the language usage,it will manipulate the readers mind and through that will make readers think of certain point of view that is created by the writer themselves. When a perspective being formed the ideology will be created. Ideology here is, an idea for readers to evaluate certain article or texts.

In reading 2.3, Thwaites et al (1994)’Text and textualities’ explained that how actually a text can give impression or belief to the readers. By visual text,the writers try to deliver some belief that close to myth. Any text will have certain meaning of something. However,the writer cannot fully control the readers mind by the text because there will be a scope in some readings.

Overall , to see the ‘Battling the bullies’ by perspectives focus skill,it is clear that the writer is trying to make some manipulation over the readers. The writer create the ideology from the perspective to make the readers belief what the writer wants to.
