Bullying:

Bullying:


Bullying is a form of aggressive behavior manifested by the use of force or coercion to affect others, particularly when the behavior is habitual and involves an imbalance of power. It can include verbal harassment, physical assault or coercion and may be directed repeatedly towards particular victims, perhaps on grounds of race, religion, gender, sexuality, or ability

School bullying:

Bullying can occur in nearly any part in or around the school building, though it may occur more frequently in physical education classes and activities, recess, hallways, bathrooms, on school buses and while waiting for buses, and in classes that require group work and/or after school activities. Bullying in school sometimes consists of a group of students taking advantage of or isolating one student in particular and gaining the loyalty of bystanders who want to avoid becoming the next victim.

Effects of bullying on those who are targeted

Bullying can cause loneliness, depression, anxiety, lead to low self-esteem and increased susceptibility to illness.In the long term it can lead to Post Traumatic Stress Disorder and an inability to form relationships

Teenage pregnancy

Teenage pregnancy refers to pregnancy in a female under the age of 20. A pregnancy can take place at any time after puberty, with menarche (first menstrual period) normally taking place around the ages 12 or 13, and being the stage at which a female becomes potentially fertile. Teenage pregnancy depends on a number of societal and personal factors. Rates vary between countries because of differences in levels of sexual activity, general sex education provided and access to affordable contraceptive options.

Prevention:

Many health educators have argued that comprehensive sex education would effectively reduce the number of teenage pregnancies, although opponents argue that such education encourages more and earlier sexual activity.

Overweight:

Overweight is generally defined as having more body fat than is optimally healthy. Being overweight is a common condition, especially where food supplies are plentiful and lifestyles are sedentary.

Causes:

Being overweight is generally caused by the intake of more calories (by eating) than are expended by the body (by exercise and everyday living). Factors which may contribute to this imbalance include:


Alcoholism

Eating disorders (such as binge eating)

Genetic predisposition

Hormonal imbalances

Insufficient or poor-quality sleep

Limited physical exercise and sedentary lifestyle

Poor nutrition
