Bullying is widespread, but not many people talk about its consequences or methods to stop or alleviate it. There is no equivalent term in Romanian, but it can be associated with terms such as intimidation, terrorization, labeling, and ridicule. As a brief explanation, “bullying” refers to behavior, and “bully” refers to the aggressor. Bullying is intentional intimidating behavior that occurs repeatedly and is based on a perception of a power imbalance. Often, the victim is perceived as vulnerable (coming from a different social environment, perceived as “different,” etc.) and/or having difficulty coping with this behavior. On the other hand, through intimidation, the bully feels in control. The causes of bullying are multiple and must be considered on an individual level. Often, the “bully” lives in an insecure home environment and may be a victim of abuse in the family themselves. Visible effects of bullying are related to physical bullying: direct effects such as bruises, scratches, and wounds, or indirect effects such as ripped notebooks, destroyed or stolen objects (e.g. the child comes home without a watch or a mobile phone). In most cases, the effects of bullying are emotional. They may include low self-esteem, anxiety, depression, reduced academic performance, suicidal ideation, eating disorders, and shame. The victim feels powerless and alone. These consequences can be short-term, medium-term, or long-term, depending on the duration of bullying, family/school support, and individual resilience.
