Awe, little Moe.
I was picked on a fair bit as a kid. And I think in some ways it made me stronger… I definitely have some scars, but overall, I made the best of the situation in the end. I somehow managed to still like school most of the time. And, I had to learn how to cope with it and many of those skills work in the workplace where people can sometimes be as mean as kids. I know others who were picked on significantly more harshly and they have some definite scars and damage to show for it. But, I also saw the reverse, people so sheltered that they still can’t deal with adversity in any situation because they were always hauled out of it before almost anything happened… And I mean anything. I grew up with a kid who was moved to three different schools because his mom felt he was being bullied every time he came home saying someone took a pencil or bumped into him in the hall. He didn’t finish university because the profs were “mean and unfair.” I sometimes wonder if he is missing out because he was so protected.
Bullying is awful. But (without trying to sound too harsh), so is the other side of the coin where people are sheltered to the point of not being able to function in a world full of bullies. Ideally we wouldn’t have to. But the issue is not just with children in school, but with adults as well. It is too bad, though.
