AAAAA,
I understand.

Muffy,

I agree with you. My point was that bullys are created at home or by opportunity. Opportunity being they sense vunerable people and prey on them. It can and should be stopped at home. They are not just kids going through a stage. They are potential thugs in the making. They are the reason we have had so many violent and deadly incidents at schools. They need to be stopped quickly and punishment must be severe. I have no, ZERO, tolerence for bullys. The same goes for constant teasing, it is wrong and it is not funny. It is humiliation and it is wrong.

Growing up is tough enough without the added pressure of physical or mental abuse by your peers.
