| Students Are Most Likely to Be Bullied If They Live in These States Posted: 21 Aug 2016 04:20 AM PDT  Hollywood movies would have us believe that bullying often resembles a group of popular, athletic boys shoving nerdy classmates against lockers in school hallways—or girls trashing their peers in a Mean Girls–style "burn book." In reality, bullying takes many forms, including name-calling, physical violence, and anonymous verbal abuse typed from behind the safety of a computer screen—and the problem is worse in some states than others. It crunched data from 45 states and the District of Columbia along 17 metrics that fell into three categories: bullying prevalence, bullying impact and treatment, and prevalence of anti-bullying laws. Thanks to its high percentage of high school students being bullied online and on school property, Michigan was found to be the state with the biggest overall bullying problem in the nation.
