The impact of bullying on children's brains should not be underestimated as it can cause mental health problems.

According to a new study, it is possible that the effects of bullying on the children's brain may be worse than previously thought.

This is because researchers have found that repeated bullying reduces the brain's size. Because of this narrowing of the brain, bullying victims may be prone to depression and anxiety.

The impact of bullying on the brain should not be ignored

The study was conducted by researchers from King's College London. They aim to find out how bullying affects the brain and development of young people.

The study was conducted on 682 adolescents aged 14-19, and they were answered with a mental health questionnaire, and were given a brain scan. More than 30 of them claimed to be victims of bullying when they were younger.

Based on these brain scans, they noticed that some parts of the brain of young people who were victims of bullying were smaller. The raw parts of this brain are connected to learning, and to behavior.

Additionally, researchers also found that adolescents who experienced bullying had depression and anxiety. It is possible that their previous bullying had affected their development.

Bullying is a big problem, especially for teens. There are now several cases in which a child who was a victim of bullying attempted suicide.

What can parents do about bullying?

Bullying is a big problem. Several incidents have recently spread with an Ateneo student, who is a notorious bully to his classmates.

In addition to the safety of their children, it is also important that parents know what to do when their child is victimized by bullying. Here are some tips for parents:

  • Talk to your child. Having open communication is important so that your child is not afraid or embarrassed to say if they are victims of bullying.

  • Teach them to be brave and not be afraid of their bully.

  • Let your child know that you are always there to help and support when they bully them.

  • Talk to their teacher and tell them your child is a victim of bullying.

  • Teach your child to ask for help when they are bullied by their classmates.

Sometimes Ive seen a kid hurt herself. she was hitting herself. I was so sad seeing her that my heart could explode into tears. If I can only give that a hug and make her mine. Ill do it. That kid is full of mark. And a deep pain I can see in her eyes.

It makes me cry cause I can see my kid to her.
