Is name calling really bullying?
Saturday, 09 January 2010 00:00
Yes, if the three conditions are present that would make it bullying.  These three conditions are: 
  1. Was it intentionally mean spirited (embarrassing, humiliating or otherwise a put down)?
  2. Was there a power difference between the person doing the name calling and the person being called names?
  3. Was the namecalling repeated?
