- In what ways is bullying dangerous to the person being bullied?
- What are some specific examples of verbal bullying?
- What are some specific examples of physical bullying?
- What should an adolescent do if they’re being bullied?
- What should an adult do if they’re being bullied?
- What should you do if you know that your child or another child you’re close with is being bullied?
- What should you do if an adult you’re close to is being bullied?
- Is there relevant research on how bullying impacts physical and mental health? If you know of any studies, please share!
