    I have been the brunt of a couple situations
    And I have been the instigator in a couple others
    Its part of life
    OK it hurts at the time
    But it creates a stronger person
    In the real world, things are ruff, might as well get used to it when young
    And learn to deal with it

    I am very much against the government sticking their foot in what should be handled by the family

    Many, but not most, bullies are merely criminals in the making. Their brains are wired differently to think that only their needs matter and everybody else is beneath them. No longer are bullies "cowards". We're seeing a new brand of bullies that are fueled by narcissism. Sensitivity and kindness are seen as weaknesses. You can not "talk" to a bully. You can not "kill them with kindness". In many cases the most effective method of dealing with a bully is a single act of physical violence. And several of the comments on this link actually prove that.

    I have to wonder what some of the more inventively-control-freak bureaucrats will
    consider to by 'bullying' behavior. Seems like a handy way to bring yet more people under their control... and, Oh!... We'll have to hire more bureaucrats to administer the program! Oh Happy Day! Bigger government. Again.
     
    truckermario Thanks this.
