I worked for a head teacher who was a subtle bully. I wasn't bullied but two divorced colleagues, who really needed their jobs, were. He would have been horrified to realise he was a bully, being an upstanding Christian.jabbloghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12176958811589489979noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3869854312562524230.post-1720996563148033192012-03-19T13:45:28.907+00:002012-03-19T13:45:28.907+00:00Feeling an urge to smooch the computer screen, dir...Feeling an urge to smooch the computer screen, directly on that kitten's sweet face!!! <br /><br />My biggest bully is my mother-in-law, but I can handle her.

It came to a point when I'd had enough, and hit back. That solved the problem, at least for me.<br /><br />Emotional bullying and abuse is a whole different field. I've put up with toxic behavior for years from my sisters, and it really did me a lot of harm. So much so that I'm getting help for it, and feeling that for my own well being, I don't want them in my life.William Kendallhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00331324250821836822noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3869854312562524230.post-70520410897153774532012-03-18T20:39:24.335+00:002012-03-18T20:39:24.335+00:00Well said Talli!

As a kid, I was always way too sensitive to even dream of being mean enough to bully anyone...excerpt for, well, bullies. I admit, I did retalliate and made some bullies cry. Which got me lots of cheers from my classmates / workmates (OK, as a kid...and a slightly older kid.). LOL <br /><br />I think that often, bullying could be prevented or at least lessened if the adults in charge at schools (or bosses in the adult world) refused to tolerate it instead of turning a blind eye.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01025900107236429624noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3869854312562524230.post-72485899316773529562012-03-18T00:01:32.736+00:002012-03-18T00:01:32.736+00:00thank you, Talli, for giving a shout out for my bl...thank you, Talli, for giving a shout out for my blog!
