We are so excited to be back here for another season of PACERTalks About Bullying. This is our 67th episode, and it's been so fun to bring you didn't informational videos, student interviews, and so much more about all things bullying. We have a lot of really fun things planned for this season, season three of PACERTalks About Bullying, so make sure you follow along every week. In today's video, we are going to be doing a new video concept where we answer your most frequently asked questions in 60 seconds or less. Today's question is how is bullying defined. So, let's get into the video. The definition of bullying can vary by state or by school. When we talk with students, they often describe bullying as a behavior that makes you feel less about who you are as a person. This is a great starting definition, but let's get a little bit more into the hallmarks. Bullying is an intentional behavior that hurts or harms another person physically or emotionally. It can happen at school, in the community, or online. The person demonstrating the bullying behavior has more power. This can mean physical power, social power, or power in numbers. And the person experiencing bullying has difficulties stopping the behavior. Finally, bullying is typically repeated, although it can be a one-time incident. And that was our 60 seconds, or less, response to how bullying is defined. If you want to find your state's definition, visit stopbullying.gov. That's all that we have for this week's video, make sure to come back here next week, as we'll be having students answer the same question. And remember, together we can create a world without bullying. See you!
