Samenvatting:

Breaking the Silence provides a peek into what bullying is really like in Singapore. True stories and large-scale surveys conducted with children in Singapore schools provide a comprehensive account of the nature and prevalence of traditional and cyber bullying in both primary and secondary schools. This book examines the risk factors involved in bullying — for the victim, the bully and the community — together with the harmful consequences, and also considers the roles parents and community leaders can play in combating this serious problem.
