    Bullying is aggressive behavior meant to harm or discomfort another person. There are three main types of bullying: physical, verbal, and social. Bullies have more power than victims through physical size, status, or peer group support. Signs that a child is being bullied include complaints of mistreatment, behavioral changes, not wanting to go to school, and poor academic performance. Harassment and intimidation are terms sometimes used for bullying between older students, and involve hurtful, degrading, or threatening behaviors.
