Bullying Is About More Than Just Two People

Bullying is always about more than what’s going on with two people: the bully and the target. What about the  “wingmen”, the bully’s supporters, the kids who think the bully is the bee’s knees and want to stay in their favour? What’s happening with the kids watching silently – the bystanders? Who is seeing what’s happening, when it all starts to kick off, and getting out fast? Who’s calling out the injustice?

To understand bullying, you have to see the whole picture.

Bullying is about absolutely everyone; even the bystanders – those who do or say nothing when bullying is taking place.
