For example, a less athletically inclined peer may be called nerd or wimp.
Unlike physical bullying, by definition verbal bullying is harder to see and
stop. It tends to occur when adults aren’t around to stop it and the effects of
it are not obvious.
Verbal bullying can be very damaging and may have long term psychological
effects on the victim.
Words alone do have power. While the effects of physical bullying may be
more obvious at first, verbal bullying is more insidious and over long periods
of time works to destroy a child’s self image and self esteem. This can lead
to depression, anxiety and other problems.
It isn’t easy for someone going through this to accept when the line crossed
from being a prank or banter to persistent bullying. By the time you realise it
is bullying, it may feel harder to seek support.
Covert bullying can be almost impossible for people outside the interpersonal
interaction to identify. Covert bullying can include repeatedly using hand
gestures and weird or threatening looks, whispering, excluding or turning
your back on a person, restricting where a person can sit and who they can
talk with.
Covert social or verbal bullying can be subtle and even sometimes denied by a
person who claims they were joking or 'just having fun'.
Some bullying is both covert and indirect, such as subtle social bullying,
usually intentionally hidden, and very hard for others to see. This type of
bullying is often unacknowledged at school, and can include spreading
rumours, threatening, blackmailing, stealing friends, breaking secrets,
gossiping and criticising clothes and personalities.

Students who bully sometimes have problems and are unhappy. They may be

bullying, they try to get these in their own lives. These students need to feel
