1. What is bullying?
   1. Dan Olweus, creator of the Olweus Bullying Prevention Program, ( http://www.olweus.org/public/bullying.page) provides us with this commonly accepted definition for bullying in his book, Bullying at School: What We Know and What We Can Do:
      
      "A person is bullied when he or she is exposed, repeatedly and over time, to negative actions on the part of one or more other persons, and he or she has difficulty defending himself or herself."
      
      This definition includes three important components: 
      1. Bullying is aggressive behavior that involves unwanted, negative actions.
      2. Bullying involves a pattern of behavior repeated over time.
      3. Bullying involves an imbalance of power or strength.

   2. Bully Behaviors

      1.  Types of Bullying:  Bullying can take on many forms. As part of the Olweus Bullying Questionnaire, students are asked if they have been bullied in any of these nine ways:

            2. Bullying through social exclusion or isolation
            3. Physical bullying such as hitting, kicking, shoving, and spitting
            4. Bullying through lies and false rumors
            5. Having money or other things taken or damaged by students who bully
            6. Being threatened or being forced to do things by students who bully

            8. Sexual bullying

2. Indicators of bullying (Phil Duncan - In response to the age old question, "Can one person really make a difference?" I submit the following statement from www.olweus.org :)

   1. A single student who bullies can have a wide-ranging impact on the students they bully, students who observe bullying, and the overall climate of the school and community.
   2. Students Who are Bullied - Students deserve to feel safe at school. But when they experience bullying, these types of effects can last long into their future:
      1. Depression
      2. Low self-esteem
      3. Health problems
      4. Poor grades
      5. Suicidal thoughts
3. What is cyberbullying?
   1. http://www.olweus.org/public/cyber_bullying.page?menuheader=1
      1. Indicators of cyber bullying
         1. A child may be experiencing cyber bullying if he or she:
         2. appears sad, moody, or anxious
         3. avoids school
         4. withdraws from or shows a lack of interest in social activities
         5. experiences a drop in grades or decline in academic performance
         6. appears upset after using the computer or being online
         7. appears upset after viewing a text message on a cell phone
         8. If a child shows any of these warning signs, it is important to talk with the child and investigate his or her online presence to determine whether cyber bullying is occurring and to offer help when needed.
