Bullying can happen to me or you or anybody, but there are things that we can all do to help.
What is bullying?
Bullying is when someone makes you feel bad or hurts you again and again. Bullying can happen at school or out of school or online. Bullying includes:
calling people unkind names
laughing at people
taking someone's things without being allowed
not letting someone play in a group
hitting people
What is cyberbullying?
Cyberbullying happens online and includes:
sending unkind messages
sharing photos without permission
not letting someone be part of an online group
What can you do?
If someone is mean to you, tell an adult that you know or like. For example, talk to a parents or a teacher. You can block a person who sends mean message online. Don't reply.
Talk to your parents or teachers or an adult you know well if you see bullying or if you are worried about a friend.
Say sorry if you're mean to someone. You can write a message or talk to the person. Think about how to be kind in the future.
We can all help to say no to bullying.
