‘SEC. 4001A. FINDINGS.

‘Congress finds the following:CommentsClose CommentsPermalink





‘(1) Bullying among children is aggressive behavior that is intentional, involves an imbalance of social or physical power or strength, and is typically repeated over time.CommentsClose CommentsPermalink





‘(2) A child who is being bullied or harassed often has a hard time defending himself or herself.CommentsClose CommentsPermalink





‘(3) Bullying can take many forms, including hitting or punching; teasing or name-calling; intimidation through gestures or social exclusion; and sending insulting, threatening, or offensive messages via Internet sites, e-mail, instant messaging, SMS, telephone, or any other electronic messaging system.CommentsClose CommentsPermalink





‘(4) There is no single cause of bullying among children; rather, individual, familial, peer, school, and community factors may place a child or youth at risk of bullying his or her peers.CommentsClose CommentsPermalink





‘(5) A majority of parents, students, and educators report that bullying and harassment are issues of major concern.CommentsClose CommentsPermalink





‘(6) Research indicates that children and youth with disabilities or special needs and children and youth who are lesbian, gay, bisexual, or trans-gender, or who are perceived to be so, face a higher risk of being bullied than other children.CommentsClose CommentsPermalink





‘(7) Children and youth who are overweight or obese are at increased risk for bullying by peers. Weight-based teasing is consistently associated with high depressive symptoms, thinking about or attempting suicide, and the development of binge eating and bulimia nervosa later in life. As young as the third grade, girls who experience harassment report lower self-esteem and satisfaction with their weight and shape.CommentsClose CommentsPermalink





‘(8) The degree to which a child is teased is positively related to weight concerns, loneliness, lower confidence in physical appearance, and higher preference for isolative activities which are associated with decreased levels of physical activity among overweight youth.CommentsClose CommentsPermalink





‘(9) Research indicates that adolescents in unsafe neighborhoods engage in less physical activity than their peers; and that physical activity programs can improve health, reduce obesity, and have positive effects on academic achievement.CommentsClose CommentsPermalink





‘(10) Children and youth who are bullied are more likely than other children to be depressed, lonely, or anxious; have low self-esteem; be absent from school; suffer from headaches; complain of stomach aches; have problems sleeping; experience fatigue and poor appetite; and think about suicide.CommentsClose CommentsPermalink





‘(11) Bullying can be a sign of other serious antisocial behavior or violent behavior or both.CommentsClose CommentsPermalink





‘(12) Children and youth who frequently bully their peers are more likely than their peers to get into frequent fights, be injured in a fight, vandalize or steal property, drink alcohol, smoke, be truant from school, drop out of school, and carry a weapon.CommentsClose CommentsPermalink





‘(13) A study by the Department of Education indicates harassment and bullying have been linked to 75 percent of school shooting incidents, including the fatal shootings at Columbine High School in Colorado and Santana High School in California.CommentsClose CommentsPermalink





‘(14) Gang involvement and exposure to peer violence greatly increases a youth’s likelihood of engaging in violent behavior.CommentsClose CommentsPermalink





‘(15) Youth who have been involved in gang activity and violent behavior have a significantly greater chance of continuing to be involved in criminal behavior as adults.CommentsClose CommentsPermalink





‘(16) Ninety-one percent of students who are not involved with gangs report that they expect to complete high school, yet only seventy-five percent of gang-involved youths expect to finish high school.CommentsClose CommentsPermalink





‘(17) Children from areas with significant gang influence or activity struggle with strategies to maintain their safety and report weighing the benefits and costs of avoiding gangs or engaging with them.CommentsClose CommentsPermalink





‘(18) Repeated exposure to violence is a cause of childhood trauma, depression, anxiety, post-traumatic stress, aggression, violence, and other serious behavioral problems.CommentsClose CommentsPermalink





‘(19) Bullying, harassment, and gang-related activity have serious safety consequences for schools and the students who attend them: thirty-nine percent of middle schoolers and thirty-six percent of high schoolers say they don’t feel safe at school.CommentsClose CommentsPermalink





‘(20) The stresses of being bullied, harassed, or involved with a gang can interfere with a student’s engagement in school and can negatively impact student learning.CommentsClose CommentsPermalink





‘(21) Research indicates that bullying at school can be significantly reduced through comprehensive, school-wide programs designed to change norms for behavior.CommentsClose CommentsPermalink





‘(22) Evaluations of school-based gang prevention and education programs show that they can reduce delinquency and gang activity and increase commitment to peers and law enforcement.’.CommentsClose CommentsPermalink
