Being bullied as a teen is associated with growing up in areas of income inequality

Growing up in areas with income inequality is associated with being bullied, according to a new study, which surveyed approximately 874,000 children in 40 medium and high income countries in Europe, North America and Israel. According to the study country level income inequality during the first four years of a child’s life (rather than school age years) was associated with later bully victimization.
