Bullying Victimization

Bullying victimization refers to the experience of being targeted repeatedly by harmful or aggressive behavior from others, such as teasing, threats, or physical harm. It often involves an imbalance of power, where the victim feels unable to defend themselves. This pattern of negative acts can lead to emotional distress, lowered self-esteem, and feelings of helplessness. Recognizing victimization is important for providing support and fostering safe, respectful environments where everyone feels valued.
