Further problems arise due to the difficulties of determining at which stage such conduct is bullying. General youthful chatter becomes bullying when the same person or people receive negative attention frequently against their own wishes but cannot avoid it.
Another problem is the persistence of certain harmful and undesirable behaviors. Isolated incidents do not prove to bully, but that a definite time period is needed-weeks, months, and even years-for bullying to be defined. Therefore, it is difficult to illustrate these concepts.
That said, efforts have been made to create a working understanding of bullying so that the word is explicit.
Speak to a parent, teacher, counselor or other trusted adult if you are being harassed or meet someone at school or online. You and your friends can also stand up to bullying by talking when someone is being bullied, refusing to share meaningful and damaging messages on your colleagues and reporting bullying when you are witnessing it.
