Bullying is the ongoing, deliberate misuse of power in relationships through repeated verbal, physical, or social behaviour that causes harm. It can happen in person or online, and may be obvious or hidden.
Look for signs such as reluctance to go to school, changes in mood, withdrawal from friends, or unexplained injuries. Talking gently with your child and asking open questions can help you understand what’s happening.
