Captions available
The idea
Bullying is unwanted aggression that involves a power imbalance and is repeated, or likely to be repeated; it can be verbal, social or physical.
In practice
Spreading rumors to exclude a classmate is social bullying.
Where people slip
A single fight between equals is not bullying; the imbalance of power and the repetition define it.
