Content: Here are some of the latest statistics on bullying in school and in the workplace. Peer Bullying in Childhood
Children and teens may be picked on, ostracized, publicly humiliated, or targeted in a number of different ways by their peers at school. The statistics on exactly how many kids are bullied—and how often it occurs—vary greatly. Studies have found that anywhere between 9 percent and 98 percent of students have been bullied. Most reports show children with disabilities, children who identify as LGBTQ, and minorities are more likely to be bullied than other children. A 2014 meta-analysis of 80 studies analyzing bully involvement rates suggests that 35 percent of students between the ages of 12 and 18 have been involved in traditional bullying and 15 percent have been involved in cyberbullying . Other statistics about bullying in school include: 49 percent of children in grades four to 12 reported being bullied by other students at school at least once during the past month. 23 percent of youth say they’ve been bullied two or more times in the past month. 20 percent of students in the United States in grades nine to 12 report being bullied.
