CDC's Position on Youth Bullying

Employers of younger workers and school administration should take notice:

Regarding the impact of bullying on our youth, the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention advises:

"Bullying is one type of youth violence that threatens young people’s well-being. Bullying can result in physical injuries, social and emotional difficulties, and academic problems. The harmful effects of bullying are frequently felt by others, including friends and families, and can hurt the overall health and safety of schools, neighborhoods, and society."

Bullying is extremely destructive and must be eliminated from the classroom and the workplace.
