Counteracting bullying at schools
Context
Bullying can take the form of verbal, physical, emotional, or sexual harassment. Examples include persistent name-calling, spreading false rumours, or threats.
Bullying is motivated by a need to feel powerful, not by low self-esteem. Victims of bullying are typically anxious and have low self-esteem.
Claim
Especially important is to focus on younger children. By high school, children have become more callous.
