Understanding the bully

The bully is often known as the campus monster. He or she ruins everyone in school, even the teachers. Bullying is an abusive behavior by a single or a group of students against a student/s a.k.a. their victim/s. The process usually involves threatening, stalking, stealing, teasing, hitting and taunting. There are also other subtle kinds of bullying, which include spreading rumors, deliberate exclusion and malicious gossiping. Bullies always manage to isolate or reject the victims.

Bullying often reaches its peak during junior high school, then gradually declines later in high school years. Thus, only physical bullying decreases. However, verbal and other types of bullying still continue. Whether it is direct or indirect, the primary indication of bullying is characterized with psychological and physical intimidation. Hence, it usually occurs repeatedly, which can be similar to consistent harassment or abuse.
