Some children will
be subjected to bullying because they belong to, or are
believed to belong to, a particular group. For example,
with homophobic bullying, a child or young person is taunted,
or physically abused because of his/her (perceived) sexual
orientation. Another example is racist bullying, where it
is the child's membership of a particular ethnic group which
is the focus of aggression and ridicule.
