5 ways bullying changed during the pandemic

Despite the fact that theyre all different, Ive seen similar bullying habits and patterns in each of them.

Throughout my profession as a school therapist, I have actually worked with trainees in a variety of educational settings. This includes option and charter schools, traditional brick-and-mortar settings, and online school.

Here are five methods bullying has actually changed during the pandemic– and one method its remained the very same:

1. Theres less opportunity to be a bully.

Since of the pandemic, a widely held perception is that most students miss social time with their peers. While this may hold true for some, it is not true for all. For trainees who experienced bullying, time spent at school mingling with others might be more stressful than enjoyable.

2. Trainees who experienced bullying are feeling a sense of relief.

A commonly held understanding is that a lot of students miss social time with their peers since of the pandemic. While this may be true for some, it is not real for all. For trainees who experienced bullying, time invested at school socializing with others could be more demanding than satisfying.
