BULLYING

What is bullying? “Bullying is persistent unwelcome behaviour, mostly using unwarranted or invalid criticism, nit-picking, fault-finding, also exclusion, isolation, being singled out and treated differently, being shouted at, humiliated, excessive monitoring, having verbal and written warnings imposed, and much more.” “Bullying is when someone or a group of people with more power repeatedly and intentionally causes hurt or harm to another person or group of people who feel helpless to respond. Bullying can continue over time, is often hidden from adults and will probably continue if no action is taken.” http://www.bullyonline.org/workbully/bully.htm

There are many ways to bully other people There are many ways to bully other people. For instance : swearing at them, saying or writing nasty things about them, leaving them out of activities, not talking to them, threatening them, making them feel uncomfortable and intimidate them. Furthermore, they are taking or damaging their things, hitting or kicking them, or force them do things they don't want to do. Bullying is wrong behaviour which makes the person being bullied feel afraid or uncomfortable and causes future problems.

When bullying takes part In 2008 at least 20 % of children ages two through 17 experienced one or more forms of bullying during the past year. Bullies themselves are more likely to be involved in other problem behaviors , such as drinking and smoking , and to show poorer school adjustment both in terms of academic achievement and their perception of school climate. Bullies anti-social behavior may persist into adulthood. One study found that males who were bullies in grades six through nine were more likely to commit a crime in young adulthood than were their non-bully peers: nearly 60 % were convicted of a crime by age 24 and 40 % had three or more convictions. Children themselves view bullying as an important problem , particulary at school, which is where most bullying occurs. More eight -to 15- years old named teasing and bullying as ''big problems'', than those who named drugs or alcohol, racism, AIDS or the pressure to have sex according to one report. According to children ages 12-18 who reported being bullied in the 2007-2008 school year , 79 % of bullying occured within the school 23 % on school grounds , eight % on the school bus, and four % somewhere else. Targeting the victim's physical appearance and stature is the most frequent type of bullying. Bullying starting on preschool age.

Where the Bullying takes place Bullying most of the times happens in school. The claim is sometimes made that most bullying takes place on the way to school, not at school. However, research shows that two to three times as many students are bullied at school compared to those who are bullied on the way to school. Approximately 40 to 75 % of bullying takes place during breaks, In the schoolyard, in the corridors, at recess, or in more secluded places, like bathrooms. It can also take place during classes unless the teacher is attentive and cracks down on any tendencies toward bullying. Without a doubt, school is the place where most bullying occurs. This puts particular responsibility on school leaders and teachers. It is clear that the behavior, attitudes, and routines of teachers and other school personnel, have a decisive Effect on the extent of bullying in the individual school or class. Of course, parents, caregivers and supervisors in many other places, in kindergartens, playgrounds, and sports and youth clubs, for example, also need to be alert to detect bullying or tendencies toward bullying.

Why do people bully others? People bully for different reasons. Those who bully persistently are likely to do so in order to dominate others and improve their social status. They may have high self-esteem ,show little regret for their bullying behaviour and not see bullying as wrong. Other people may bully out of anger or frustration, they may struggle socially and could have also been victims of bullying. http://au.reachout.com/Bullying

According to Hoover, Oliver and Hazler 1992 most of the bullying happens at school and on the school bus to and from school.  I know most of the bullying for me in grade school happened to and from school. In my case one of the safety boys who was suppose to be our friend was really a bully. “I have talked to students who have said that they have been bullied in the classroom when the teacher isn’t looking. This is why we have to continue to look for signs in our children.” “If they are upset all the time or are not eating or don’t want to go on the bus or go to school this is when you have to step in and find out what is going on. Think when you were a kid and how you didn’t want to be the kid that was the cry baby and then take the appropriate action.”

Different Kinds of School Bullying 1. Physical bullying includes any physical contact that would hurt or injure a person like hitting, kicking, punching, etc. Taking something that belongs to someone else and destroying it would also be considered a type of physical bullying. For example, if someone was walking down the street and someone came up to them and shoved them to the ground, that would be physical bullying. In elementary and middle schools, 30.5% of all bullying is physical. 2. Verbal bullying is name-calling, making offensive remarks, or joking about a person's religion, gender, ethnicity, socioeconomic status, or the way they look. For example, if there was a group of kids who made fun of another kid because he couldn't run as fast as everyone else, it would be an example of verbal bullying. 46.5% of all bullying in schools is the verbal type. Verbal aggression is when a bully teases someone. It can also include a bully making verbal threats of violence or aggression against someone's personal property.

Different Kinds of School Bullying 3. Indirect bullying includes spreading rumors or stories about someone, telling others about something that was told to you in private, and excluding others from groups. An example would be if you started a rumor that a boy in your class likes playing with dolls, and if the reason that you made up the story was because you thought it was funny. This would be indirect bullying. Indirect bullying accounts for 18.5% of all bullying. 4. Social alienation is when a bully excludes someone from a group on purpose. It also includes a bully spreading rumors, and also making fun of someone by pointing out their differences. 5. Intimidation is when a bully threatens someone else and frightens that person enough to make him or her do what the bully wants. 6. Cyberbullying is done by sending messages, pictures, or information using electronic media, computers (email & instant messages), or cell phones (text messaging & voicemail). For instance, if you sent a picture of a snake in an email to a person because you know that they are afraid of snakes, that would be an example of cyberbullying. According to a survey done in 2003 only 4% of bullying is listed as "other types" and this would include cyberbullying. Even though this number seems small, the growth of this type of bullying is going up fast because of the spread of technology around the world. http://library.thinkquest.org/07aug/00117/typesbullying.htm

School Bullying Bullying can occur in nearly any part in or around the school building, though it may occur more frequently in physical education classes and activities, recess, hallways, bathrooms, on school buses and while waiting for buses, and in classes that require group work and/or after school activities. Bullying in school sometimes consists of a group of students taking advantage of or isolating one student in particular and gaining the loyalty of bystanders who want to avoid becoming the next victim. These bullies may taunt and tease their target before physically bullying the target. Bystanders may participate or watch, sometimes out of fear of becoming the next victim. Bullying can also be perpetrated by teachers and the school system itself: There is an inherent power differential in the system that can easily predispose to subtle or covert abuse(relational aggression or passive aggression), humiliation, or exclusion — even while maintaining overt commitments to anti-bullying policies. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bullying#School_bullying

Bullying isn't: single episodes of social rejection or dislike single episode of bad acting random acts of aggression or intimidation mutual arguments, disagreements or fights. These actions can cause great distress. However, they're not examples of bullying unless someone is deliberately and repeatedly doing them to you.
