Bullying vs. teasing
What really is the difference between bullying and teasing? We’ve laid it out for you so it’s all crystal clear.
It can sometimes be hard to tell when teasing becomes bullying. If you're not having fun, if all of the teasing is directed at just one person, or if it's several people teasing one or two people, it may have turned into bullying. If you aren't sure, turn to someone you trust for support and advice.
