If your not sure if someone's being bullied but you want to know what are the signs?

Answer 1

Older students are more apprehensive telling an adult at school or a parent that they are being bullied; they are more likely to tell a peer. However, many students who are bullied keep it bottled within and do not tell anyone. The following are things you can look for that may indicate that a student is being bullied at school or through cyberbullying: cuts and bruises, visible fear, damaged personal property, graffiti on student lockers or desks, frequent absences from school, increased physical illnesses, signs of stress, failing grades, low appetite, loss of interest in regular activities, tired appearance, eating alone in the cafeteria, and lack of friends.

It may be difficult for students to report bullying for various reasons; they may fear repercussions from the bully, they do not want to be perceived as a tattletale, or they think that telling will make things worse for the one being bullied. If however, you witness someone being bullied or you think someone may be the target of bullying, you should follow the Olweus Bullying Prevention Program Anti-Bullying rule # 4: “If we know that somebody is being bullied, we will tell an adult at school and an adult at home.” If the bullying is not reported, then the bullying doesn’t stop.
