i am totally against bullying. i know a few people who have been bullied in very different ways and i know its a harsh thing to go through specially if your by yourself! Ive been there for my friends and family members through there rough times all because of somebody else's doing. bullying isn't just somebody calling you names or physically abusing you, there's a lot more to it then just that. the amount of mental and emotional trauma it causes for the individual, its life changing! unfortunately some people don't take what they say seriously to others, they just think its a 'joke'...WHEN ITS NOT! I'm grateful that i haven't experience bullying, well not to the extent that its left me upset!
most bullies are insecure or jealous and that's why they feel the need to make others feel upset because they are feeling the same way to! its an on going vicious cycle, that needs to be stamped down!

I think it's good you have done a blog on bullying. It is a very serious topic, and agree with most of what you say. However, I do not believe that all bullies are merely insecure. Though many probably are, I also believe that some people can be bullies because they are totally the opposite. They may have everything, good looks, plenty of money and a good family, and like to brag because they believe that they are just better than another person.
