Bad Effects:
Kids who are bullied can experience negative physical, social,
emotional, academic, and mental health issues. Kids who are bullied
are more likely to experience:
 Depression and anxiety, increased feelings of sadness and

loneliness, changes in sleep and eating patterns, and loss of
interest in activities they used to enjoy. These issues may persist
into adulthood.
 Health complaints
 Decreased academic achievement—GPA and standardized test
scores—and school participation. They are more likely to miss,
skip, or drop out of school.
A very small number of bullied children might retaliate through

extremely violent measures.
Ways to prevent Bullying:
Parents, school staff, and other caring adults have a role to play in
preventing bullying. They can:
 Help kids understand bullying. Talk about what bullying is and

how to stand up to it safely. Tell kids bullying is unacceptable.
Make sure kids know how to get help.
 Keep the lines of communication open. Check in with kids often.
Listen to them. Know their friends, ask about school, and
understand their concerns.
 Encourage kids to do what they love. Special activities, interests,
and hobbies can boost confidence, help kids make friends, and
protect them from bullying behavior.
 Model how to treat others with kindness and respect.
 Kids who know what bullying is can better identify it. They can talk
about bullying if it happens to them or others. Kids need to know ways
to safely stand up to bullying and how to get help.
 Encourage kids to speak to a trusted adult if they are bullied or see
others being bullied. The adult can give comfort, support, and advice,
even if they can’t solve the problem directly. Encourage the child to
report bullying if it happens.
 Talk about how to stand up to kids who bully. Give tips, like using
humor and saying “stop” directly and confidently. Talk about what to do
if those actions don’t work, like walking away
 Talk about strategies for staying safe, such as staying near adults or
groups of other kids.
 Urge them to help kids who are bullied by showing kindness or getting
help.
We did an interview with those for people
who experienced bullying. And almost all of
them have bad consequences from bullying.
According to them, not only did their self
confidence drop, but they also questioned
themselves as to what was wrong with them.
Take Away Regarding Bullying:
1. The bullies will only keep bullying unless action is taken
As long as you do not do anything to defend yourself by telling parents, teachers or administrators, the
bullies will keep bullying you. If they do not feel threatened, they will only get worse and you will have no
choice but to be the victim of their bullying. Bullies are only bullies if you let them.
2. You have to stand up for yourself
In the real world, you have to be able to take care of and defend yourself. You can defend yourself
verbally, for example, by saying “stop” or asking what you did to make the bully hurt you. No one is really
going to be there to stand up for you, so you have to be able to do that.
3. You should not care what other people think or say
If you let a bully’s words get to you, you may become upset but you should not. Yes, I cared about what
people thought and sometimes I still do, but bullying taught me that it does not matter what anyone but
yourself thinks about you.
4. You are not alone
There are many people who have also been bullied, probably a lot that have been bullied the same way
as you. Trust me, if you feel as if you are alone, you are not. You have people like parents, therapists,
family members that you can count on.
5. If you see bullying going on, do something about it
If and when you witness someone being bullied, do not just stand there and watch. Become involved –
tell a nearby teacher or administrator, try to stop the bullying in a careful manner. Be careful not to get
too involved, or you might get in trouble by having an experience that the bully can use to haunt you.
6. Bullying should not change you, but should be a part of you
You should use your experiences to make better, wiser decisions and you can even help someone from
being affected by bullying.
