Please read and educate yourself, family, and friends of the harmful effects of bullying. http://www.buffalo.edu/news/12902 Bullying Unit #1 Vocabulary Bullying Definition: overbearing person who tyrannizes the weak; intimidation, a person hired to do violence Context: The act of bullying is usually targeted at others who are not as strong. Bullies are often very aggressive. Empathy: Definition: intellectual identification of oneself with another, understanding the attitudes of others. Context: When one demonstrates empathy they are putting themselves in another's shoes to learn how they feel and or act. Alternative: Definition: offering a choice of two things, selecting a course of action. Context: We can choose alternatives to our behaviors and look for various ways to react to others. Talking over an issue is a better alternative than hitting someone who has made us angry. Victim Definition: person, or thing, destroyed or sacrificed; person who suffers; dupe or prey. Context: People usually do not choose to be victims but often cannot solve the problem without help from others. Taunting Definition: to reproach with insulting words; sarcastic remark. Context: Words do hurt. Constant insults can be damaging and taunting can escalate to anger or worse. Relentless Definition: showing no sympathy, unyieldingly severe, mean, or harsh. Context: Relentless behavior means it goes on without end, it is continuously harsh behavior. Ridicule Definition: mocking; to make fun of, speech or action intended to cause contemptuous laughter at another person. Context: To get others to laugh at someone else because of their dress, look, or actions is to ridicule someone. Ethics Definition: relating to morals or moral principles; philosophy of human character and conduct, of distinction between right and wrong, rules of conduct. Context: To behave ethically means to conduct oneself within society's rules of accepted behavior. This is often considered "doing the right thing." Intervene Definition: to come or be between, to "intervene" between others to stop behavior, solve a problem, speak for another, and avoid an incident from happening. Context: Examples of acts of intervention are physically stopping someone from doing something, talking to adults who can help stop a situation, helping two people solve an issue, and assisting someone in need. Influence Definition: power over men or things; to act on the mind; to have the capacity to effect others' behaviors and opinions; to move or compel a person to some action Context: Positive influence means to have an improved effect on others, negative influence has the effect of making others do bad things. .
