Bullying - Just thinking out loud.

[Cultcha]

Is bullying something that we should be trying to eliminate?

After all, it has been around since our ancestors lived in caves.

The alpha males would bully the more submissive males to assert their hold on the tribe.

Is bullying socially inappropriate behavior or is it part of who we are as humans?

milo, i was gonna post something similar. i remember being called all sort of things growing up in a school that had one black child--->me. i survived.

we had flood pants, carrot tops, traintracks, etc. and we all survived.

i don't think you can outlaw human behaviour. now they have gay-straight alliance. what the hell is a gay-straight alliance doing in schools.

when i was a teen, there were a lot of teens killing themselves it wasn't because they were gay or bullied (or at least we never heard that). i think it's harmonal, but i'm not as smart as the ones making the rules.

everything that happens, the people want to legislate.

eg. a pregnant woman rides into a truck making a turn and dies, now they want to put rubber padding around trucks so cyclists bounce off them.

i think this social networking which has created a vast class of narcissistic fools is the problems. maybe they need to stay off facebook. even when they're killing themselves they have to go twitter one last time and update their facebook static.

my rant.

when you have children, come back and tell us if you feel the same.
