over and over again. Bullying often includes: Teasing Talking about

8. Why Do Kids Bully? There is no one single cause of bullying
among children; individual, family, peer, school, and community
factors can place a child or youth at risk for bullying.
9. Family risk factors for bullying: A lack of warmth and
involvement on the part of parents. Overly-permissive parenting
(including a lack of limits for childrens behavior). A lack of
supervision by parents. Harsh, physical discipline. Parent
modelling of bullying behavior. Victimization by older
brothers.
10. Peer risk factors for bullying: Friends who bully. Friends
who have positive attitudes about violence. Some aggressive
children who take on high status roles may use bullying as a way to
enhance their social power and protect their prestige with peers.
Some children with low social status may use bullying as a way to
deflect taunting and aggression that is directed towards them, or
to enhance their social position with higher status peers.
11. Other Factors: Bullying thrives in schools where faculty
and staff do not address bullying, where there is no policy against
bullying, and where there is little supervision of
studentsespecially during lunch, bathroom breaks, and recess.
Models of bullying behavior are prevalent throughout society,
especially in television, movies, and video games. When children
are aggregated together, they associate with others who are similar
to them or who have qualities or characteristics that in some way
support their own behaviors.
