It is essential to learn how to identify, deal with, and cope with a bully to ensure a safe and healthy environment for everyone.

Identifying a Bully

Recognizing the signs of a bully is the first step in addressing the problem. Some common characteristics exhibited by bullies include aggressive behavior, a need for power and control, frequent use of derogatory language, and a tendency to intimidate or manipulate others. They may engage in physical, verbal, or online bullying, targeting their victims consistently over a period.

Parents and teachers should be vigilant in observing changes in a child's behavior, such as withdrawal from social activities, sudden fearfulness, or decline in academic performance. Victims of bullying may display signs of anxiety, depression, or low self-esteem.
