What
is
bullying?
There
is
some
confusion
about
what
constitutes
bullying.
Bullying
is
defined
as
something
that
someone
repeatedly
does
or
says
things
to
gain
power
over
or
to
dominate
another
person.
The
following
are
some
of
the
common
examples
of
bullying:
Name
calling,
put-downs,
cruel
teasing;
Saying
or
writing
nasty
things
about
other
people;
Deliberately
excluding
certain
individuals
from
activities;
Not
talking
to
specific
individuals;
Threatening
anyone
with
bodily
harm;
Taking
or
damaging
things;
Hitting
or
kicking
Making
someone
do
something
they
don’t
want
to
do.
Kinds
of
bullies:
There
are
several
kinds
of
bullies.
“Proactive
bullies”
need
no
provocation
and
are
naturally
more
aggressive
towards
others.
This
group
frequently
has
poor
social
and
relational
skills
and
compensates
for
this
lack
by
picking
on
others.
“Reactive
bullies”
have
often
been
victimized
by
other
bullies
who
then
retaliate
by
becoming
a
bully.
A
third
group
of
bullies
might
be
called
“provocative
victims.”
 These
people
provoke
fights
or
aggressive
encounters
with
others.
They
are
quick
to
become
oppositional
or
defiant
and
cry
or
display
exaggerated
responses
in
conflict
situations.
This
group
is
the
most
rejected
by
peers
and
has
the
fewest
friends
(Marano,
H.,
1995).
Another
recent
study
showed
that
it
is
often
difficult
for
even
peers
to
identify
who
are
the
bullies
and
who
are
the
victims
because
the
vortex
of
violence
is
so
prevalent
and
so
many
participate
in
it.

et
al.,
