One of the most painful aspects of bullying is its relentlessness. The seemingly never-ending nature of bullying can put a person in a state of constant fear, and kids who are bullied may find their schoolwork and health suffering.
Studies show that people who are abused by their peers are at risk for mental health problems such as depression or anxiety. They may also think about suicide more.

Is bully, bully kids like you.
