A lack of appetite can also be a sign. The stress of worrying about a bully can lead to real physical symptoms. Social Signs A reluctance to go to school is a major signal that your son or daughter is the victim of a bully. Most bullying occurs on school grounds, and this can affect every aspect of a child's education. A decline in their grades, not wanting to participate in school activities or wanting to quit an activity they already participate in should be looked into.
Children try to hide from the bully by staying in the safety of their own homes.
A child who is always losing money at school could be a victim. Children being bullied can become very angry. This may be taken out on anyone that is around, including parents and siblings. If you notice that your child is always angry, looks depressed or is aggressive, this could be a sign as well. This would depend on whether the abuse is physical or verbal.
