What is it the bullies don't get?

It's hard but my family and I are getting thro' it.

One day at a time.

Yeah, it's bad enough that there's no peaches but for someone to illegally procure from you the main ingredient with which you make cream SUCKS NUT SAC!!!

[maebach]

It's not all peaches and cream.

One morning I woke up to find that in the hour between the milkman leaving it, and me getting out of bed - someone had stolen two pints of milk from my doorstep

, it was the terrorrists! they're moving into whales from england.

Yeah, I've been picked on before...no major beatings or anything just words and perhaps the occasional jokes like tittie twisting and throwing Dodge balls at point blank range (fucking hate him)

At anyrate, i've never been into a fight...I've never really stood up to anyone physically simply because I have so much restraint...well except in one case where I slammed some guy against the wall.

But their will always be people who will fine joy and pleasure in other people's suffering.

Personally...the amount of anger I've held in all my life, I could probably kill someone...but thats another story.

As far as the bully thing, man that stuff needs to stop. It's like the Pay It Forward thing, just in a negative way.

People that bully usually have been abused at some point in their lives and find this as an avenue to vent that anger or frustration.

If you don't stand up for yourself, then how do you look at yourself in the mirror? You have to defend yourself, otherwise the whole world will just bear down on you if they can.


As far as the hitting a girl, I don't think it's right.

But, if said girl is trying to rob, kill, rape, or in someway do harm to me, or my family, then Hell Yeah I would hit that girl. At that point, she has crossed the line and does it really matter that it's a female?

To bad...it's not.

I am in the process of changing my son's school because of bullies.

The thing is, the most hurtful stuff is often the psychological bullying and that is so hard to spot and stop.

I am not sure about the theory that bullies are bullied at home. Quite a few of the ones I have come across have been pandered to and had little or no discipline at home (spoilt brats basically). Also, they tend to have parents who cannot believe that their little darling could behave in such a way...so nothing gets done.

Girls are good though, they learn to turn on the tears if it looks like they might get caught out (the most recent incident with my son meant that he was told off for upsetting this little madam who was doing the na na ne na na behind the teachers back as my boy was told off!!!)

I suffered from 2 bullies at work (women), and it was only because I stood up to them, (union rep, threats of grievance procedures etc etc) that I have now got a new contract and don't have to work with them any more. Still, it caused me over a year of incredible stress and the bastards are still in post (senior managment). Bullying does not stop once we become adults. The funny thing is, I have not really been bullied before, and now I have an all new understanding of what damage it does to your soul. I am not the same person I was and once you have been picked on, it makes you more vulnerable as you are always waiting for the next kick in the teeth.

Yet more evidence that bullying can destroy lives.

There was evidence the boy, whose half-sister had been admitted to hospital under the Mental Health Act, was being bullied at school.

I can't prove that this is a direct result of bullying, I certainly don't believe it's due to the game he was playing. But this boy has been bullied, I don't know to what extent but it is possible that the built up frustration, fear and anger from bullying led to him snapping. And because he's too afraid of the bullies to fight back, he looses it and attacks someone he CAN attack without the fear of retaliation.
It's quite possible this event IS a direct result of bullying.

That's possibly an indirect result Jonno.

Besides that, he's a little shit for stabbing a baby and there ain't no excuse for it.

[Jon L. Obscene]

I'm not excusing him by any means. But this is possibly as you say an indirect result (yeah I got that wrong lol) of what the bullying drove him to. If it can drive you to suicide then it can drive you to murder.
