Bullying and how to stop it, sentence 1

One quarrel between friends, or someone bumping you by accident, is not bullying, though it can still need sorting out; bullying is repeated and on purpose.

Who acts: One quarrel, quarrel · What happens: bump, not be, need, sort out, repeat · To what, where: you, bullying
