Bullying is a true nightmare for children and parents alike. It's deeply upsetting for parents to know that they're little one is being treated unfairly by their peers. As the world has modernised, so has bullying. It now includes more than physical violence and a huge part of it takes place online. Let's take a closer look at the different types of bullying, so that you can be prepared for what may be going on in your child's school.
THE FIVE MAIN TYPES OF BULLYING
It might surprise you to find out that there are a number of different types of bullying. Understanding each is a must in order to help your little one should they fall foul of a bully's nastiness.
Physical bullying
Physical bullying is the most infamous kind, and is probably the first to jump to mind whenever you think of this problem. This style of bullying is a method of intimidation that takes place by overpowering the victim physically. It can include any forms of physical violence, including punching, kicking, slapping or pushing.
Thankfully, it is relatively easy to spot. By its nature, physical bullying is quite overt and it's difficult (although not impossible!) for it to go unnoticed. Schools tend to be very proactive in tackling this kind of bullying.
