It absolutely counts as bullying. If anyone makes you feel hurt, threatened, or scared, even if you don't show it, it is absolutely bullying. You need to talk to an adult you can trust and they can help you find a solution. Do not confront the bully directly.

Thanks loads - only asking because my friends have a joke about me that they all think is hilarious - one friend in particular - and they don't realise it hurts me.

What can you do at your school to help prevent bullying?

Bullies enjoy it when a crowd stands and watches them bully. Normally, no body bothers to stand up to the bully, and so they keep on bullying. However, if the bystanders step in, it deflates their ego and they will usually leave the kid alone. Keep in mind that the more people step in, the more effective it will be. Also, getting responsible adults involved can help. One more thing... if you are ever being bullied, don't let it upset you, and don't show that you are angry if you are. Those two things 'feed' the bully, and they just keep going.


How devastating can text bullying become?

Text bullying is even worse than being bullied on a face to face bullying at school because the person can hide behind texting. It is generally girls who do the most damage by spreading untrue gossip or just picking the victim apart, but it also can happen to boys. The devastation is that the constant and persistent text bullying hurts the victim deeply; makes them feel alienated from others; they can become depressed; loss of appetite; school grades go down dramatically; they stay in their rooms from family and some victims cannot stop checking out their text messages from a bully even they are aware the text will upset them. Sometimes text messaging to bully a victim can cause the victim to take their own life. Teachers; counselors at school; some students who are not bullies; parents and even the police are more pro active to stop bullying and change the laws when a bully is doing damage to their victim. Society as a whole is say 'NO' to any type of bullying.

What makes a cyber bully different than a regular bully?

Cyber bullying is not only belly biting (taking small nips at first at the victim) but is a form of a lack of confidence in the bully or bullies themselves not to mention a vicious mean streak and they do so by text messaging or sending emails by name calling or threats of possible bodily injury to the victim. Often Cyber Bullying is more than one person and they may think it is fun to upset their victim simply because they may not like the victim for one reason or another or no reason at all. A regular bully is one who bullies students at school; in the neighborhood or at the workplace and bullies come in all age brackets and not just teens.


Does a child who is being bullied at school become a bully at home?

Probably. The victim will be upset and be annoyed easily after being bullied, and if they lose control, they may bully physically, emotionally, or mentally at their brother, sister, cousin, or maid. The victim grows accustomed to it and starts to become a bully. Some victims of schoolyard bullying may not become bullies at home or elsewhere. They will find their hobbies, the bullying might calm down, they will report to teachers, counselors, or parents, and if the bully stops, the child may act normally as usual. It may work the other way too. A child who is abused or mistreated by siblings might carry that to school. Abuse creates feelings of powerlessness in the victims, but it also creates a cheap sense of power in the abuser.
