Relational	
  Aggression	
  is	
  a	
  type	
  of	
  bullying	
  in	
  which	
  another	
  student	
  causes	
  harm	
  through	
  
damaging	
  relationships.	
  This	
  can	
  include	
  exclusion,	
  manipulation,	
  and	
  rumors.	
  
	
  
Here	
  is	
  an	
  example	
  of	
  relational	
  aggression:	
  there	
  is	
  a	
  group	
  of	
  friends	
  that	
  you	
  want	
  to	
  be	
  
apart	
  of	
  so	
  you	
  ask	
  if	
  you	
  can	
  play	
  with	
  them.	
  The	
  group	
  talks	
  a	
  bit	
  and	
  then	
  tells	
  you	
  that	
  you	
  
have	
  to	
  do	
  these	
  things	
  first:	
  
• You	
  have	
  to	
  bully	
  a	
  kid	
  smaller	
  than	
  you	
  into	
  giving	
  you	
  his	
  lunch	
  money	
  
• You	
  can’t	
  be	
  friends	
  with	
  your	
  BFF	
  anymore	
  
• You	
  have	
  to	
  be	
  BFFs	
  with	
  them	
  or	
  
• You	
  may	
  have	
  to	
  play	
  with	
  them	
  every	
  day.	
  
	
  
You	
  know	
  this	
  is	
  wrong	
  but	
  you	
  really	
  want	
  to	
  be	
  included,	
  and	
  you	
  know	
  the	
  group	
  can	
  make	
  
everyone	
  not	
  like	
  you.	
  This	
  group	
  of	
  friends	
  is	
  called	
  a	
  clique.	
  Not	
  all	
  groups	
  of	
  friends	
  playing	
  
together	
  are	
  cliques.	
  Girls	
  often	
  form	
  cliques,	
  but	
  boys	
  can,	
  too.	
  What	
  makes	
  a	
  group	
  a	
  clique	
  
is	
  the	
  behavior	
  of	
  the	
  people	
  in	
  the	
  group.
