Is there really a problem with bullying, or have we just become a society of sissies?

Don’t ALL kids get bullied at one time or another? I know I was, and I think it toughened me up. Had my parents been the kind to run to the principal of the school or the parent of the bully, I may have grown up to be a spineless wonder. But instead, I remember my dad in particular giving me pep talks and pretty much making me find the confidence I needed to stand up for myself.

I realize not all kids have good parents who are present and able to guide them properly. But personally, I think a little bullying is a normal part of life. The kids that off themselves probably had other issues that were deeper than being bullied.

Maybe I’m just being a hard ass. 

Discuss amongst yourselves.
