Relational aggression (RA) is emotional violence in which girls use relationships to harm others. RA Girls sometimes devise and direct complex social/emotional games that victimize others through exclusion or isolation, rumors, gossip, eye-rolling, pitting friends against one another, sarcasm, revealing and altering personal secrets. These RA girls, themselves, are in need of insightful interventions that will help them learn other, more appropriate, ways to become empowered. Without such help, these girls are likely to continue to be disruptive and eventually will develop more serious problems.
In addition, girls who are targets of this type of socialized bullying often suffer lasting effects. Without effective intervention, relational aggression can lead to academic and social withdrawal, depression, substance abuse, risky sexual behavior, suicidal ideation, delinquency, criminal behavior, and future dysfunctional relationships. Sometimes, other students (and/or adults) are unknowingly manipulated by RA girls to take on roles in the victimization process. These students and adults also need to learn how to identify and respond appropriately in RA situations.
