What is bullying?

Bullying is when someone is being hurt or harmed by another person, either physically or emotionally. It can happen in different ways and in different places such as at school, on the playground, online, or even at home.

It is important to recognize bullying because it can cause a lot of pain and damage to someone's self-esteem and mental health. Here are some ways you can recognize bullying:

○ Physical Bullying: This is when someone uses physical force or actions to hurt someone else. Examples include hitting, pushing, or tripping someone.

○ Verbal Bullying: This is when someone uses words to hurt or humiliate another person. Examples include name-calling, teasing, or making fun of someone.

○ Social Bullying: This is when someone uses their social status or power to hurt or exclude someone else. Examples include spreading rumors or gossip, excluding someone from a group, or embarrassing someone in front of others.

○ Cyberbullying: This is when someone uses technology to hurt or harass someone else. Examples include sending mean messages, posting embarrassing photos or videos, or spreading rumors online.

If you or someone you know is being bullied, it is important to speak up and seek help. You can talk to a trusted adult, like a teacher or parent, or report the bullying to the school or authorities.

Remember, bullying is not okay and everyone deserves to be treated with kindness and respect.
