Bullying is just wrong
No matter what kind of bullying
It's still stupid. From wikipedia.com (bullying)
The effects of bullying can be serious and even fatal. Mona O’Moore of the Anti-Bullying Centre at Trinity College in Dublin, has written, "There is a growing body of research which indicates that individuals, whether child or adult, who are persistently subjected to abusive behavior are at risk of stress related illness which can sometimes lead to suicide."[14]
Victims of bullying can suffer from long term emotional and behavioral problems. Bullying can cause loneliness, depression, anxiety, lead to low self-esteem and increased susceptibility to illness.[15]
The National Conference of State Legislatures said:
- "In 2002, a report released by the U.S. Secret Service concluded that bullying played a significant role in many school shootings and that efforts should be made to eliminate bullying behavior."[16]
Suicide
There is a strong link between bullying and suicide.[17] Bullying leads to several suicides every year. It is estimated that between 15 and 25 children commit suicide every year in the UK alone, because they are being bullied.[18]Also it happens to adults to in the work place
So stop bullying
When bullying stops it would be when pigs fly..
