40 Percent of Irish Kids Bullied

A major study of 8,500 Irish children found that 40 percent have been bullied in the past year, and most of their parents do not know about it.

The nine-year-old children are part of a new study called Growing Up in Ireland. The study found that while most Irish children like school live with both parents and are healthy, almost one in four is overweight. The authors of the study are advising parents to be more concerned about weight issues and bullying.
