Cover -- Half Title -- Title -- Copyright -- Dedication -- Contents -- Preface -- Acknowledgements -- Section 1 -- Chapter 01 -- Chapter 02 -- Section 2 -- Chapter 03 -- Chapter 04 -- Chapter 05 -- Chapter 06 -- Chapter 07 -- Section 3 -- Chapter 08 -- Chapter 09 -- Chapter 10 -- Chapter 11 -- Section 4 -- Chapter 12 -- Chapter 13 -- Chapter 14 -- Chapter 15 -- Section 5 -- Chapter 16 -- Chapter 17 -- Section 6 -- Chapter 18 -- Section 7 -- Chapter 19 -- Chapter 20 -- References -- Index.
Girls¿ bullying is more subtle and less physical than that perpetrated by boys; however, it can be just as powerful, and the emotional repercussions of bullying among girls can be more destructive and longer lasting than the effects of more obvious forms of bullying. Teachers report that quarrels between girls are far more time-consuming and difficult to resolve than the disputes of boys, yet not enough information is available to guide them on dealing with girls¿ fighting and unhappiness caused by their relationships with other girls, many of whom may have been their closest friends. Understanding Girls¿ Friendships, Fights and Feuds illuminates the issue of girls¿ bullying ¿ an issue that can cause a great deal of distress but which is sometimes ignored or dismissed by adults. Drawing on close observations of girls¿ behaviour, Val Besag provides an in-depth understanding of girls¿ bullying, exploring the mechanisms and language that girls use to entice some into their groups and exclude others.
