Bullying isn't necessarily someone giving their opinion, or a matter of confidence! |

No. As Kay says, if you have confidence in yourself the opinions of others really don't matter. |

Dermot is right but not everybody is up for a fight and that is why bullies survive and thrive. |

I suffered many years of bullying starting in my first year at primary school when I was 5 and continued right through into my first job at 18. It was different people and most of the time it was verbal. I would tell my parents and the school would stop one lot of people only for someone else to start. Even at 18 one of my work colleagues bullied me but by then I did not have the courage to say anything the years of bullying had worn me down. It was my first full time job and I was terrified of losing it. After six months the woman left and that was the last time I was bullied. However the customers at the restaurant were also known to on occasion take out their tempers sometimes physically on the staff and I found it easier when there not to say anything that wasn't required. |

Bullies have no age limit & silence encourages them to bully more. |

I found there was always a bit of name calling at school, but never considered it malicious. |
