Bullying 

Bullying is a complex and relevant topic in today’s society when it comes to challenging behavior. According to stopbullying.gov, “Bullying is unwanted, aggressive behavior among school aged children that involves a real or perceived power imbalance. The behavior is repeated, or has the potential to be repeated, over time” (n.d., para. 1). In order to be able to have a positive effect on children who are bullying others, or who are being bullied, we must understand what bullying is, how it develops, and how we can prevent it.
