  3. Introduction/Background • According to the American Psychological Association, Bullying is described as: “a form of aggressive behavior in which someone intentionally and repeatedly causes another person injury or discomfort. Bullying can take the form of physical contact, words or more subtle actions.” • The bullied individual typically has trouble defending him or herself and does nothing to “cause” the bullying. • Around 160,000 children miss school every day due to fear of attack or intimidation by other students. Source: National Education Association. • According to statistics reported by ABC News, nearly 30 percent of students are either bullies or victims of bullying.

Damage to or taking someone else’s belongings may also constitute as physical bullying. • • Verbal – name calling, insulting, making racist, sexist or homophobic jokes, remarks or teasing, using sexually suggestive or abusive language, offensive remarks • • Indirect – spreading nasty stories about someone, exclusion from social groups, being made the subject of malicious rumors, sending abusive mail, and email and text messages (cyber bullying). • • Cyber Bullying - any type of bullying that is carried out by electronic medium. There are 7 types including: • 1. Text message bullying • 2. Picture/video clip bullying via mobile phone cameras • 3. Phone call bullying via mobile phones • 4. E-mail bullying • 5.

Bullying and Suicide • Suicide is the third leading cause of death among young people, resulting in about 4,400 deaths per year. • For every suicide among young people, there are at least 100 suicide attempts. Over 14 percent of high school students have considered suicide, and almost 7 percent have attempted it. • Bully victims are between 2 to 9 times more likely to consider suicide than non-victims, according to studies by Yale University.

  6. How to Identify Bullying • Unexplainable injuries • Lost or destroyed clothing, books, electronics, or jewelry • Frequent headaches or stomach aches, feeling sick or faking illness • Changes in eating habits, like suddenly skipping meals or binge eating. Kids may come home from school hungry because they did not eat lunch. • Difficulty sleeping or frequent nightmares • Declining grades, loss of interest in schoolwork, or not wanting to go to school • Sudden loss of friends or avoidance of social situations • Feelings of helplessness or decreased self esteem
