How to Recognize the Signs
Understanding the signs of bullying is the first step toward prevention and support. Bullying can take many forms, and its impact often shows up in emotional, social, or physical ways:
Emotional: Ongoing sadness, anxiety, fear, or a sudden loss of interest in activities they once enjoyed.
Social: Being excluded from groups, targeted by rumors, or experiencing manipulation in friendships.
Physical: Missing belongings or frequent complaints of illness to avoid school or social situations.
If you notice these signs in someone, don’t ignore them. Reaching out with empathy and concern can make a powerful difference—whether they’re experiencing bullying or facing another challenge. Your support might be exactly what they need.
