SUMMARY - Bullying & Mental Health Impact
A girl comes home from school each day and says nothing about the messages she has been receiving, the group chats she has been excluded from, the whispers that stop when she approaches. She eats alone in the bathroom stall rather than face the cafeteria. She has started cutting herself, finding in physical pain some relief from pain she cannot name. Her parents think she is moody, going through a phase, not understanding that their daughter is under siege in a war they cannot see. A boy who was popular becomes target after a rumor spreads, his social world collapsing overnight.
