I believe that many Chinese parents have seen reports and even shocking videos of campus bullying in China on Chinese social media.

Australian students are twice as likely to be bullied as China
The report shows that 10% of Australian students have been beaten or shoved on campus, a figure three percentage points higher than the global average.
According to the report, one out of every seven Australian teenagers was robbed or destroyed by classmates ,12 percent had been gossip and 10 percent had been threat.
OECD report is based on a survey of 10 million 15-year-olds worldwide.
Australian teenagers are twice and three times more likely to be bullied than Chinese and Korean students, the report said.
"When students feel safe in school, they may achieve better educational outcomes ," the report says. "
"An environment characterized by disrespect, bullying, injury or violence can be an obstacle to learning. "
"School bullying can have a long-term negative impact on students' mental health and increase the likelihood of dropping out. "

Increased risk of cyberbullying in the new crown
OECD, in another report entitled "Responding to the impact of Coronavirus on children ", referred to the increase in children's unregulated use of the Internet during the embargo imposed by the new crown epidemic, which also exacerbated sexual exploitation and cyberbullying.
"government and digital service providers need to consider actions to protect children from harm in a digital environment, given that many children are already exposed to and are more likely to be exposed to such risks, including porn text messages, cyberbullying or sexual exploitation ," the report states. "
For example, the pandemic of the new crown has increased the likelihood of children being sexually exploited in a digital environment and has meant that help services, hotlines, cognitive centres and proper law protection are more important for children at risk. "
