Data were collected from Child Protection Bureau, Lahore. The findings demonstrate that girls scored high on bullying, victimization while the street boys scored high on social competence. It means street girls were more likely to engage in bullying victimization and show less social competence than that of street boys. In correlation analysis, social competence was found to be significantly and negatively correlated with bullying, fight, and total bullying for the street boys. Whereas, social competence did not significantly correlate with victimization for the street boys and for the street girls. It was further demonstrated that social competence was more significantly and negatively correlated with bullying.
