What is Bullying?
Bullying refers to repetitive, intentional behaviour aimed at causing harm, fear, or discomfort to another person.
It often involves a power imbalance where the person bullying asserts control over the individual being targeted. Bullying can happen physically, verbally, or online.
What Bullying Is NOT
It's essential to distinguish between conflict or one-time disagreements and bullying:
Conflict: Normal disagreements or fights between individuals where both parties have equal power.
Rough Play: Mutual roughhousing or playful teasing that doesn’t cause harm or discomfort to anyone involved.
