Abstract

Bullying has become a general and daily phenomenon experienced by all members of society due to the conditions of wars and economic crises, to which society has been exposed for decades and is continuing to this day. This phenomenon has extended to young and old individuals and groups. School bullying is sometimes considered a continuation of domestic violence, and the exposure of primary, middle, and secondary school students to school violence in its various forms affects their personalities, especially in psychological aspects. The student's lack of attention and preoccupation with disturbing, disruptive behaviors inside the classroom cause a lot of learning time to be lost during the class. The teacher's preoccupation with curbing this work using methods that harm the progress of the educational process can lead to distorted forms of relationships and behaviors and produce patterns of psychologically and emotionally disturbed personalities. It leads to bullying, whether at school or in other social institutions. Bullying is such a fundamental problem in our schools and society because it impacts a large number of students of all races, genders, and socioeconomic statuses. Here, the researcher identified types of bullying and described the impacts of bullying in the "Mean Girls" movie.
