Elsa, YES. I do not have a chance to read the whole thing right now, but this article seems to share the exact same sentiments I am always trying to express. I actually have always known that social ostracism is worse than bullying, in fact when I say bullying I usually mean social ostracism, because bullying without social ostracism is trivial in comparison. We seem to be on the exact same page. I wish more people started waking to these FACTS.
