Description
The National Child Traumatic Stress Network (NCTSN) published information regarding childhood trauma. The NCTSN defines trauma as an event a child is involved in or witnesses and is intensively threatened by it. One type of trauma the NCTSN recognizes is bullying, and it is a deliberate and solicited action that happens with the intent of inflicting harm on someone who is perceived to be less powerful and occurs repeatedly. Bullying can be physical, verbal, or social, or it can take place online as cyberbullying. Youth who are bullied can experience many detrimental effects, and short and long-term effects include stress, anxiety, depression, loneliness, poor academic performance, and self-injury. Additionally, youth exposed to trauma and violence are more likely to bully others, be more distressed by bullying, and be victims of bullying themselves. The NCTSN website provides various resources concerning bullying.
