Aggressive behaviour

When interacting with other people, it may happen that adolescents are exposed to aggressive behaviour or act aggressively themselves. Aggressive behaviour means: fights, bullying (in person or online), theft or damage to property, threat and blackmail. Being a victim of aggressive behaviour can affect physical and psychological well-being. Authors of such behavior, for their part, may feel guilty and may face punishment.
