Bullying in schools can happen in different ways. It can be physical, like hitting or shoving. It can be verbal, like calling names or making fun of someone. Social bullying happens when people leave someone out or spread rumors. Cyberbullying uses phones or computers to hurt others.
Bullying can start for many reasons. Sometimes, bullies want to feel powerful. Other times, they have problems at home or don't know how to be kind.
The effects of bullying are bad. Victims can feel scared or alone. They might not want to go to school, and it can even lead to depression.
To stop bullying, schools need to have strong rules and help students feel safe. Teachers and parents should work together to stop bullying when it happens. With these steps, schools can become safer for everyone.
