SOCIAL & RELATIONAL BULLYING

Social and emotional bulling: also called "relational bullying", includes behavioral actions designed to harm a child’s reputation or cause humiliation, like lying and spreading rumors, negative facial gestures, playing mean jokes to embarrass or humiliate a child, mimicking the child in a mean way, encouraging social exclusion of a child, etc.

While social and relational bullying can be very evident in childhood it can also happen in adulthood. This can happen in the act of gossiping, spreading rumors and trying to exclude someone or make them feel uncomfortable. This can easily happen in grade school, post secondary schools and in the work world.

WHAT’S THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEEN BULLYING AND HARRASMENT

• Looking at bullying and harassment are vary similar in a way in fact they are almost the same, the only difference is that they have different outcomes. They both have the intention of hurting someone by verbal encounter, but harassment has more of a violet outcome because it’s known as discriminating against the person.

• Looking at discrimination; it is defined as treating people poorly and threatens a person ages, race, religion, sex, sexual orientation, family status, physical/mentally disability.

• Comparing them to one another – bullying is where its name-calling and insulates which are serious but not as violent and cruel harassment.

• They both aren't a joke and need to be taken seriously.

(Bullying and Harassment Definition Information from the Canadian Red Cross - Canadian Red Cross.)

WHAT’S THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN CONFLICT AND BULLYING

• If we look at bullying and the definition of it it’s known a persistent pattern of unwelcome or aggressive behavior that often involves an imbalance of power, and/or the intention to harm or humiliate someone.

• Looking at conflicts definition on the other hand is generally a disagreement or difference in opinion between peers who typically have equal power in their relationships. It’s usually an inevitable part of a group dynamic.

• Therefore when comparing the both of them we can figure out what’s what. If someone is consistently teasing, punching, rude gestures ect. we can tell it’s bullying because its keeps happening over and over again, where as looking at conflict it’s usually only a one time thing between two and once the issue is resolved the conflict lifts and the two are back to being civil with one another.

(E.R.A.S.E Bullying)

STAND UP, DON’T BE THE BYSTANDER!

• The reason for a bully to exist is that they usually crave attention and power. Some kids will think their tough and that is funny to hurt/harm the feelings of others and some it will just be their nature because they’ve grown up in a violent house hold with abusive parents.

• Now what is power without an audience? • There are two types of Bystanders; the hurtful one and the helpful one.

• Hurtful Bystander• Those who support the bullying by encouraging them with cheering, laughing, yelling things like

“come on” “hit harder” ect. Then this can leading to cyber bullying because some bystanders will take video/pictures and upload to any social media group where the victim will be scene viral.

• Another form is if someone is just watching and not doing anything to help the victim.

• Helpful Bystander• Those who directly intervene by discouraging the bully which is defending the victim, or

redirecting the situation away from bullying. May also rally support from their peers to stand up against bullying, or report the bullying to adults. This could be as simple as telling the bullying to "leave him alone" or "cut it out".

Don’t be the Hurtful Bystander, your just as bad as the bully! Stand up against bullying!

THE RISK FACTOR

• Bullying poses many short term and long-term threats to the victim. Some of the issues caused by bullying can lead into adulthood and follow the child as they grow. Which can ultimately be detrimental to their childhood and growth as an individual.

• “A very small number of bullied children might retaliate through extremely violent measures. In 12 of 15 school shooting cases in the 1990s, the shooters had a history of being bullied”.

• Children who are bullies will often carry that characteristic with them in life as they grow. Children who were bullies are often the kids who grow up to be violent and more likely to: abuse drugs and alcohol, take part in criminal convictions and traffic citations as adults and be abusive toward their romantic partners, spouses, or children as adults.

DID YOU KNOW?

• Girls are more likely than boys to engage in relational bullying, and this behaviour is often learned at an early age. This category of bullying is the most difficult to recognize because it can be done behind the child’s back. But it is one of the most harmful – children who are frequent victims of relational bullying feel rejected, depressed and submissive, and often don’t see a resolution to the situation.

• Cyberbullying is the newest of the four bullying types, and it is constantly evolving and changing as new technology and social media sites are introduced. Cyberbullying has expanded the boundary of bullying, allowing kids to be bullied 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, regardless of where they are – even in their own bedrooms.

• Bystanders can effectively stop bullying within 10 seconds of an intervention. It’s important to make sure youth know the important role they can play, and realize the power they have when they stand up for what is right and stand up for each other.

• A child or youth can be both a bully and a victim, and may move between the two. These children and youth experience the most serious emotional, behavioural and relationship problems, and require the most intensive support.

• Bullying can happen at any age. (O'Donnell, J. )

• Female bullies tend to be Mean Girls who use aggression and cyberbullying to control and manipulate situations. Where as boys tend to be more physically aggressive. They also are impulsive, menacing and enjoy the status they get from a fight. (E.R.A.S.E Bullying)
