School bullying is a type of bullying that occurs in an educational setting.
School bullying may be more specifically defined as an unwelcome behavior among school-aged children. In order to be considered bullying, the behavior must be repeated and aggressive.

1. sensitivity
2. anxiety and

Recent statistics suggest that the majority of students will experience bullying at some point in their lives.
In the early 21st century, increasing attention has been given to the importance of TEACHERS and PARENTS understanding and recognizing the signs of bullying (among both bullies and victims), and being equipped with strategies and tools to face with such a serious 'crime'.
BULLYING as a 'CRIME'?
There are many who believe that BULLIES should be criminally punished and not to get away with this.
However, cyber-bullying is considered a crime already. In the USA, for example, they are really hard on cyber-bullies. Crimes classify all the way up to third degree felony. The sentence of a 3rd degree felony can be 2 to 10 years in jail and up to a $10,000 fine.
