42. Risk Factors
Bullying can happen anywhere and
depending on the environment, some
groups—LGBT youth, youth with disabilities,
and socially isolated youth—may be at an
increased risk of being bullied.

53. Possible causes of
bullying

54. Adolescent
behavior

55. There is evidence that the
physical changes that occur
during adolescence can
make young people's moods
particularly labile
(changeable).

56. Many adolescents feel that
society and parents in
particular, treat them like
children when they feel they
belong to the grown up world.

57. Adolescence is a time when
people experiment
personalities before
establishing a more stable
adult identity.

58. Poor discipline at
home

59. Students of parents who are
extremely lax are more likely
to show conduct disorder

60. but then, so are parents of
over strict parents or parents
who use physical punishment
or show lack of affection or
attention.

61. According to Gadston et al,
perhaps the most damaging
type of discipline regime is an
inconsistent one. This can lead
to the child having a confused
notion of 'right' and 'wrong'

62. Economic and
social deprivation

63. There is a strong correlation
between child delinquency
and poverty. However the
reasons for this are not clear.

64. Tony Sewell (1997) conducted
a study that investigates the
relationship between family
life, street culture and
schooling among African
Carribbean boys raised in lone
parents family.

65. He found out that about 18% of
the boys rejected the norms
and values of the school

66. They were confrontational and
challenging, adopt a macho
masculinity and demanding
respect.

67. General effects
Summary of the effects

68. Effects on the bullied

them. They often like to be alone

being bullied again.

73. They tend to not do good in
school.

74. Long-term effects

75. They will become increasingly
susceptible to becoming
depressed and/or angry and/or
bitter

84. A more in-depth look
Studies of effects of bullying

85. Victims of bullying may suffer a
loss of self-esteem which can have
an adverse effect on their lives
and can simply be put off school
and education in general.
(Kidscape, 1999)

86. Bullying can lead to suicidal
thoughts, anxiety, low self-esteem,
hopelessness, and isolation. Many
say they self-harm and are too
scared to go to school and lose
focus when they do attend.
(Childline, 2006)

87. Hetrick-Martin Institute (HMI) found
adults who were bullied 30 years
ago considered that the effects
remain with them. Bystanders are
also affected – they feel
compromised, helpless and guilty.

88. Steps of
PREVENTION

89. Have a clear
definition
of bullying

90. Parents should explain to their children of what
bullying is. They should also mention to them
that there are other forms of bullying other
than physical aggression (e.g. excluding
someone and/or ignoring them)

91. Teach the
importance
of empathy

92. A child who is able to understand what it may
feel like to be bullied and can understand and
regulate his own emotions is less likely to
engage in that behavior

93. Set a good
example

94. Children are susceptible to being influenced
by other's behavior. Parents should set a good
example by practicing courtesy and respect.

95. Set clear and
enforceable rules
& expectation

96. Age-appropriate rules allow a student to know what
behavior is expected. When kids are younger, keep
rules simple. When kids are older, shape the rules to
help them meet their maturity level.

97. Have open
communication

98. When teachers have open
communication with their students,
their students will feel more open to
talking to them about their problems—
including bullying. Having classroom
meetings is one way to build that
communication.

99. Responding
to bullying

100. Stop bullying
on the spot

101. When adults respond quickly and consistently
to bullying behavior, they send the message
that it is not acceptable. Research shows this
can stop bullying behavior over time.

102. Find out what
happened

103. Whether you’ve just stopped bullying on the
spot or a child has reached out to you for
help, learn how to determine the best way to
proceed. Steps include separate the kids
involve and make sure everyone is safe.
Don’t ignore it

104. Support the
kids
involved

105. All kids involved in bullying—whether they are
bullied, bully others, or see bullying—can be
affected. It is important to support all kids
involved to make sure the bullying doesn’t
continue and effects can be minimized.

106. Be more
than a
bystander

107. Every day, kids see bullying. They want to help, but
don’t know how. Such steps include tell a trusted
adult, help the victims get away and be the victims
friend

108. Hold
bystander
accountable

109. Bystanders provide bullies an audience,
and often actually encourage bullying.
Explain that this type of behavior is
wrong, will not be tolerated, and that
they also have a right and a
responsibility to stop bullying.
