Like on campus you have the instructor right there in front of you if you have questions to help, basically face to face, hands on work. With online it’s a lot different to me because I would get stuck on what to do and in need of help when it comes to class work and understanding on what to do.

Bauer, “bullying is aggressive behavior marked by an imbalance of power occurring repetitively with intent to harm and can either be physical (e.g., fighting, pushing) or relational (e.g., social exclusion, spreading rumors)” (Bauer 2007).

In 2008 House Bill 91 was enacted in Kentucky.

If he or she hurts the bully badly enough, he or she can be tried in a juvenile court.
