Teasing Bullying: A Story Told by The Tease Monster

This document distinguishes between nice teasing from friends which is playful and meant to elicit laughter, and mean teasing or bullying which is cruel, intended to hurt, and involves repeated harmful behavior from someone the target is not close with. Mean teasing crosses into bullying if it happens often without apology and there is an imbalance of power between the individuals.
