Understanding the Bullying Triad
BULLIES:
- find it difficult to see things from someone else's perspective
- lack empathy
- have a strong need to dominate and control
- are willing to use others to get what they want
- have difficulty accepting adult authority
VICTIMS:
- tend to be afraid, anxious, unsure of themselves, and mistrusting
- have difficulty in social situations
- perform poorly in school
- rarely ask adults for help - may feel like adults will not care or understand
- are afraid bullying will worsen if they tell - may fear being seen as a tattletale or snitch
BYSTANDERS:
- witness bullying and do nothing
- upstanders witness bullying, empathize with the victim, and act by confronting the bully or by reporting the behavior to an adult
