Picture

Bullying is mean, cruel, hurtful behaviour. It involves using power in a negative way to hurt others. However, bullying is a complex issues and it may be hard to tell immediately if a child is being bullied. If you suspect a child is being bullied look for changes. However, be aware that not all children who are bullied exhibit warning signs.

Some signs that may point to a bullying problem are: 
  • Unexplainable injuries
  • Lost or destroyed clothing, books, electronics, or jewelry
  • Frequent headaches or stomach aches, feeling sick or faking illness
  • Changes in eating habits, like suddenly skipping meals or binge eating. Kids may come home from school hungry because they did not eat lunch.
  • Difficulty sleeping or frequent nightmares
  • Declining grades, loss of interest in schoolwork, or not wanting to go to school
  • Sudden loss of friends or avoidance of social situations
  • Feelings of helplessness or decreased self esteem
  • Self-destructive behaviors such as running away from home, harming themselves, or talking about suicide
If you know someone in serious distress or danger, don’t ignore the problem. Get support at Kids Help Phone.
