Bullying

The need to bully is inherent in people all around us...In our professional life, personal life, public places, everywhere...

Bullying involves a desire to hurt + hurtful action + a power imbalance + (typically) repetition + an unjust use of power + evident enjoyment by the aggressor and a sense of being oppressed on the part of the victim. More from this site -http://www.education.unisa.edu.au/bullying/define.html

I keep wondering...is it because they are insecure..or is it because that's how they function..
You can't escape them...they are like the moles and warts and you have to live with.But is there a way in which we could protect ourselves from them or even fight back?

There is very good stuff in this site that should help you lead a stress free and bully free life-
