BULLYING AWARENESS (YOUTH EDITION)
Bullying in youth settings can appear in many forms, including unkind teasing, leaving someone out on purpose, spreading rumors, making fun of someone, or being hurtful online. These behaviors can make a young person feel invisible—like their feelings don’t matter or their voice isn’t being heard. When someone is repeatedly ignored, excluded, or treated unkindly, they may begin to pull away from friends, feel unsure of themselves, or believe they don’t belong. Feeling invisible is not just about being left out of a game or conversation; it is the emotional impact of feeling overlooked, dismissed, or pushed aside by peers. Every child deserves to feel seen, valued, and included in their school and community.
