We say a student is BEING BULLIED when another student, or a group of students, say or do nasty and mean things to him or her. It is also bullying when a student is teased repeatedly in a way that he or she does not like or when other people leave them out of things on purpose. But it is NOT BULLYING when two students of about the same size or strength argue or fight. It is also not bullying when a student is teased in a friendly or playful way.
