Bullying is a special kind of aggressive behavior, which is usually seen among junior students. Recent research shows that there is a high incidence among children of the kindergartens. Bullying find its expression in hurting others on purpose, damaging and owning others'possessions. According to the way bullying is implemented, we divide assaulting behavior into two forms in the research: direct bullying and indirect bullying. The direct bullying with body includes beating, twisting, tramping, wrenching, poking, ramming, squeezing, kicking, pushing, heating, scrubbing, biting, knocking something out, damaging and robbing other goods, forcibly occupying seats and room, etc. Language bullying includes speaking odd words, cursing at people, teasing, satirizing, calling nickname, etc. Indirect bullying is also called psychology bullying or relation bullying, acted through the third person, including spreading, rumors, suborn beating others, games rebelling. The bullied people suffer mental and physical problem. The children who have been bullied usually feel depressed and lonely. Their attention is distracted. They play truant. They suffer a lot from insomnia and decreasing achievement. What's more, some even commit suicide. According to the frame of research, it is involved in all kinds of elements that influence children's development. The research is based on precedents and has a discussion of mothers parenting style, children's style of temperament and bullying action of children in order to have a clear understanding of the bullying action among children in theory, and to provide theoretical evidence for the effective discovery and interference to the bullying behavior.By applying"Parent Temperament Questionnaire","A Questionnaire of Maternal parenting style","A Supervising Table of Children's Behavior"and adopting teacher nomination and supervision, the research made a contrast and analysis in the 120 selected children from 800, including a group of 60 with bullying and a group of 60 as a contrasted one. The conclusion is as follows:1. In this research, the main style of bullying of 4 to 5 children is made the body way to take up 78.06% the total action. It is obviously more than the language bullying way of speaking odd words and the indirectly bullying way of games repellents.2. As far as the differences from the gender of bullying action, there is obvious difference in times between body ways and indirect bullying. That is boy's way of body on bullying more than girls, and girl's way of indirect bullying is more than boy's. However, it is not obvious difference between genders in way of language bullying action.3. Judging from the age group, there isn't clear difference among the style of body, language and indirect bullying.4. From the style of stopping and the purpose of behavior, the behaviors stopped by himself is more than that stopped by others while the behavior acquired goods is more than that hurt other. There is no obvious gender difference among them.5. Children surveyed by the research, both in the tested group and contrasted group, have remarkable difference in their temperament and the parenting style6. Children's temperament and bullying behavior have no notable relationship in all but the children momentums and the bullying behaviors of children's growth style have relationship. But the children's language style, threaten and rules have negative relation. The threat in language style, threat and adaptation have positive relation. 7. There are proportionate relationships between the style of parenting style and education and the children bullying, but from the analysis of the result of research, there is no certain linear relationship between this two.
