Show Notes

This episode is part one of a two-part series on childhood bullying and mental health. We’re joined by Dr Lesley-Anne Ey, Senior Lecturer and Researcher at Education Futures and the Australian Centre for Child Protection at the University of South Australia. In this episode, Dr Ey shares how definitions of childhood bullying vary and the impact this can have on children. She also discusses the influence of bullying on children’s mental health and the role of prevention and early intervention in reducing these effects. She explores the mental health impact of labelling children as ‘bullies’ or ‘victims’ and links these considerations to practice for health and social services professionals.
