"Bullying is an attack upon the runts of the litter - the weak of the species, and it is predicated on a lack of bond with the parents. If a child has a secure bond with the parents, that forms a force-field around the child in terms of bullying.

So keep your contacts as close as you can, they provide an amazing shield against bullies and users."
