Bullying was defined as overly powered strength used when intimidating one, demanding

one's request. Bullying is a subcategory of this aggressive behavior. The development of

bullying culture can occur in any context in which humans interact with each other.
Physical assault, verbal harassment, threat, or such acts fall under bullying. Bullying has
different effects like suicide, positive development, hormonal changes, etc.
A bully is a person who harasses, abuses, intimidates, or coerces people, especially those
with less power than they have or those considered weaker or vulnerable in some way.
There’s no one reason why people bully, but many people who engage in this conduct
feel powerless, suffer from insecurity, need to control others, enjoy the rewards they get
from bullying, etc. For example, bullying a classmate might make a kid more popular, or
bullying a worker might stop other employees from questioning management decisions.
These outcomes show bullies that this conduct pays off. Bullying is often a learned
behavior. Young bullies might live in households where adults bully one another to get
their way or deal with conflict. They might not know how else to get their needs met or
how to manage disagreements. Some bullies have had temper tantrums to get their way
since they were small children and were never told "no." Others were once bullied
themselves and repeated the behavior to feel powerful.

People who are bullied, which is the victim, are at increased risk for mental health
problems, including depression, anxiety, and problems adjusting to school. When a child
is labeled a “victim,” that can send the message to peers and adults that they are helpless,
can do nothing to change their situation, are kids who will be teased, are easily
manipulated, and need pity. There is nothing easy about being bullied. In fact, it is a
traumatic experience with long-lasting consequences. Bullying victims are impacted
physically, emotionally, socially, and academically. They also are left feeling like there is
no end in sight and no way to escape. Being bullied also can lead to low self-esteem and
increased negative self-talk. Other consequences include isolation from others—
especially peers—a decrease in motivation to complete assignments, and decreased class
participation.

Bully-victim describe someone who is the target of bullying behavior, while a second
definition uses it to describe someone who is both a victim and a bully. In the first
instance, the victim endures a pattern of intimidating, threatening, and humiliating
behavior from a bully or group of bullies. In the second case, she may likewise turn
around and bully others whom she perceives as vulnerable and of a lower status in the
social hierarchy in which victim and bully interact. The fact that some legitimate victims
of bullying go on to bully others contributes significantly to the difficulty of addressing
and resolving the problem of bullying.
