There are various reports and surveys on bullying which report between 46% and 74% of young people will experience bullying at some point. Sometimes this is relatively minor, however, the majority of the time it is not. Bullying by it’s very nature is most frequently an ongoing campaign which has dire, long-term affects on its victims. 76% of students reported that they felt mentally hurt by bullying, and a disturbing 30% felt that it made them feel suicidal.
Obviously the real damage bullying does is not the bruises but the damage to a child’s self-esteem. Sadly damage to a child’s self-esteem in these formative years is often carried for a lifetime.
Think for a second about how their self-esteem effects their decisions, who they spend time with who they will date and what they aspire to, both now and in the future.
