Bullying
Recent
events throughout Nova Scotia school communities and even in our
own school communities within the Halifax Regional School Board
have made us more aware than ever of the devastating and tragic
effects of bullying.
Bullying is
about human relationships, power and control. Bullying is
intentional, hurtful and repeated behavior that intimidates,
threatens harm, or victimizes another person to make the victim
feel weaker.
Some of the
ways bullying behaviors differ from inappropriate behaviors are:
-
Bullying is a repeated behavior
-
Bullying is an unfair match and/or there is a power
imbalance or abuse of power
-
Bullying is intentional and hurtful behavior
-
The behavior is intended to threaten, intimidate, or
victimize someone
If
you believe you are being bullied or if you believe a friend or
classmate is being bullied, tell an adult - report the incident
to your principal, vice-principal, teacher or school counselor.
