(Unit 7) Topic 6: Bullying Identification: A Developmentally Appropriate Approach​​

2 Clock Hours of Early Childhood Education

Positive Supports for Victims of Bullying

Topic 6 Page 14

Bullies require a great deal of support and assistance to adjust to appropriate interactions with others, but victims of bullying behaviors require just as much support. Being a victim of bullying can have lasting effects as it is often a traumatizing experience. Some studies have found correlations between being a victim of bullying and lasting physical and mental health challenges well into adulthood. A study that was published recently in the journal Pediatrics found that men who recalled being frequent bullies in school were four times more likely to physically abuse their partner than those who reported never bullying in school. ​Furthermore, a study by British psychiatrists as shown that victims of childhood bullying are more likely to be overweight or obese as adults and have a higher risk of developing heart disease, diabetes and other illnesses.
​First, it is important to address the bullying behavior and not hide it or ignore it. Bullying behaviors occur more frequently in private spaces and situations so it is important to address it head on. Use social stories, encourage cooperative conversations and play, and make bullying a point of conversation with children.
Next, encourage others who have experienced or witnessed bullying to be open about what they know and what they have been through. With young children this may be challenging but you can simplify it by creating a culture of kindness and community in your classroom. 
​You should also document the information that the victim communicates with you. Whatever they tell you, you should record and investigate appropriately. Sometimes children consider a mean behavior incident to be bullying so it is important to investigate these claims objectively.
