What is bullying?
It's more than just a fight or disliking someone.
It’s being mean to someone over and over again.
Bullying is when someone or a group of people who have more power than you, repeatedly use words or actions to hurt you.
Bullying can happen anywhere – at home, with friends, in a group, at school, on the bus or at school.
