I think the word is "mockery". I got stabbed with a pencil in the third grade--that was bullying. I got called Laura Kelly Jelly Belly in junior high--that was mockery that induced me to lose weight.

If it happens once or twice, yes. If it happens all the time, no - then its bullying. Especially if it continues when the kids doing it are told by adults to stop.

If you've seen 'Carrie', it shows a perfect example of what bullying can look like: continuous persecution of someone, for no other reason than to harass them.
