Abstract	This research paper examines the impact of bullying on the emotional development of children, highlighting how repeated exposure to peer aggression can affect self-esteem, social skills, emotional regulation, and academic engagement. Drawing on contemporary psychological theories and empirical studies, the paper argues that bullying has both immediate and long-term consequences on emotional growth. The study also emphasizes the roles of parents, teachers, and schools in preventing bullying, supporting victims, and fostering resilience. Evidence-based interventions such as social-emotional learning programs, peer mentoring, and parental involvement are discussed as strategies to mitigate the negative effects of bullying.
