And to help you develop a thick skin.
Really? I thought that's what bullies were for. :P
Is it just me or is it getting a little solipsistic in here?

Bullies help you perfect your thick skin. Siblings help you start it.
Some people are like slinkies; they're utterly useless, yet you can't help but smile as they fall down the stairs.

I'm back

GW at least that is good  :D

Chiro, I felt the same (no siblings here). I was not a bully, not being particularly bullied either, so I guess my skin must be soft.

I guess I always had a low profile. If I was an animal, I would have been a "hiding" one. Not even a running, I didn't need to run.

Well, that is more common with men, but women had another ways of bullying. I guess I had good classmates.

I was bullied frequently in school.  I just ignored it.


The only people who "bully" me much now are some of my family members.  ::)

That was not supposed to be a question. A statement of agreement was what it was meant to be.

Ah, yes, I've got it. Something like "ain't it true?".
Oh, I remembered, I was bullied when I was a child, first years in primary school. But tje kid was just bad with everyone, so we didn't see him as a bully, just like a very ill-mannered kid which nobody liked. I thought many times later if we could have done something for him, because something must have causing his bad behavior. I was told he died (overdose) when he was a teen. Is one of the things I still wonder, how could we have done for make it better?

Nothing you could have done, some people just have problems or are problems. Nothing you can do to change it.

I have an aunt who likes to pick on me for how I dress.
