5. Gender Differences
It is not clear which gender is more susceptible to being
cyber bullied.
Some studies show that girls are victims of cyber bullying
more than boys, while boys are bullied more in school.
Other studies have shown no difference in gender when
it comes to cyber bullying
6. Age/Grade level it effects most
There is no consistent pattern, but
students in middle school and high
school are usually victims of cyber
bullying.
7. Verbal Bullying
A non-violent form of bullying in which
the bully or bullies use words to harass a
victim.
Boy’s are more likely to be victims of
verbal bullying than girls.
8. Social Exclusion
Ignoring or excluding someone from a
group on purpose.
More common type of bullying among
girls, but this form of bullying happens to
boys as well.
9. Physical Bullying
Inflicting physical harm on a victim by
punching, kicking, pushing, shoving, and
any way to cause physical pain to the
victim.
More common type of bullying among
boys.
11. How Bullying Effects Students
Over Time
Bullying causes many social and emotional
problems for victims such as low self-
esteem, depression, anxiety, social
withdrawal, physical health complaints,
aggression, alcohol problems, and many
more.
12. Why Do Certain People
Choose to be Bullies?
Many children start bullying other children
because they were once victims of bullying
themselves.
In my personal experience, it may be
because they are insecure or because they
are trying to impress their peers.
13. What Can the Schools do to
Stop Bullying?
Teachers and faculty can prevent bullying in
their schools by creating support groups for
students dealing with bullying and by letting the
students know there are people that are willing
to help them through their struggles such as
school councilors, parents, teachers and other
school faculty.
14. Continued…
Schools need to assure the students that
they are in a safe area and find ways to
create a positive atmosphere. Example:
Setting a strict anti-bullying policy
15. What to do When You
Witness Bullying
When witnessing bullying in progress, do
not just ignore it. Stand up for the victim
and find a way to help them.
