Understanding Bullying: Its Impact and Prevention Strategies

Bullying is a pervasive issue that affects learning environments negatively. With 29% of youth in the U.S. experiencing bullying, it often occurs in classrooms and playgrounds. Bullies seek to intimidate others through physical aggression and verbal abuse, while also gaining confidence from their actions. The consequences can be severe, impacting mental health and leading to an increase in criminal behavior. Effective prevention strategies, including zero tolerance policies and supportive teacher intervention, are essential for creating safe, bully-free environments for all students.
