| Subject: School, not online, most likely place for bullying, study finds Sun Jan 29, 2017 6:52 pm | |
| Children are twice as likely to suffer bullying at school as opposed to online or at work, according to a new study.
The survey of 1000 young people aged 14-25 also found that 23 per cent of respondents had been bullied in the past 12 months, but only half had sought help.
Bullying ranged from spreading rumours and name-calling to physical bullying, exclusion and cyber-bullying, and often involved a combination of behaviours, according to the online poll conducted by ReachOut Australia, a mental health organisation.
Parents are the most likely source of help for young people who experience bullying, followed by friends, doctors and teachers.
