The self is a social product- a composite of who we think we are, who other people think we are; and who we think others think we are (Gamble and Gamble, 2013). Some of us are more self-aware than others. How we think about ourselves, or our self-concept! It's composed of two parts-self image and self-esteem. Self-image is your mental picture of yourself; it's the kind of person you perceive yourself to be. Self-esteem is Your self-assessment, it is your evaluation of your ability and worth and indicates how well you like and value yourself. Our self-concept significantly affects our behavior, including what we think is possible, to who we choose to communicate with, and whether we desire to communicate. Bullying is persistent teasing, name-calling, or social exclusion. A few researchers believe that bullies are likely to be among the most popular people, admired by others. Bullies bully people because of their behaviors. People with very low self-esteem define themselves prImarily by their limitations and tend to be negative about a lot of things.
