Relationships - Bullying

Bullying

Bullying can mean being called names; being teased; being pushed or pulled about; being hit or attacked; having rumours spread about you; being ignored and left out or being forced to hand over money or possessions.

Always tell somebody if you are being bullied - friends, teachers, parents, your Personal Adviser. If you are at school your teachers have a duty to do something about it if you tell them you are being bullied.
