According to Aida Midgett, “To address bullying at school, counselors first have to be able to identify it. The literature defines bullying as intentional, unwanted and aggressive behavior that is often repeated in relationships with a perceived power differential.”
As stated by Positive Discipline: A Teacher’s A-Z Guide, “Victims don’t learn how to solve problems or how to accept responsibility for the consequences of what they do. Instead they learn how to get others to commiserate with them and solve their problems. As a consequence their emotional development is hindered.”
Based on Ross Ellis, “Schools must offer or arrange for the bully to receive behavioral therapy management rather than punishment. In severe cases expulsion may be necessary, but fixing the root of the problem is the route to take.”
