Abstract

“[the bullying behavior] took various forms- “‘It included putting fish oil in her bag, covering her with chocolate sauce, telling her that she was worthless and didn’t deserve to be here, — those sorts of things’ and ‘they would just grab her and hold her down and put oil over her so she couldn’t get away (this occurring) on three or four occasions’” (White, 2008, p. 2)
