This is a question that worries parents more and more: how do you know if your child is being bullied at school? While the tragedies multiply, the government presented on Wednesday 27 September an inter-ministerial plan to combat school bullying.
On this occasion, our colleagues at franceinfo they met Daniel Bailly, child psychiatrist in Annecy and former university professor at the Faculty of Marseille. He analyzed the different symptoms to recognize those of the child victims, starting from the profile. Because according to him: “ Not all children will be bullied. (…) Generally these are children who suffer from anxiety disorders, are extremely shy and reserved. They are children we don’t talk about, and not even models of children. »
Falling votes, lack of communication…
Although he specifies that these symptoms of anxiety may be temporary, the child psychiatrist says that this must be taken into account “from the moment they take place for a certain duration and with a certain intensity “. Clearly, if a child claims to have the knot in the stomach every morning before going to school, you have to take it seriously.

Daniel Bailly also states this franceinfo That sudden drop in grades it would be a sign of harassment. He therefore recommends that parents contact the teaching staff regularly: “If at the beginning of the school year the teacher tells you ‘we can’t hear him,’ or that it takes him three months to hear the child’s speech, you should worry “. A drop in votes that would be accompanied by a lack of communication between the child and the parents.
Best of all, a bullied child can come home from school with them certain injuries : scratches, bruises or even torn clothes.
