holy wow! :)

That's CRAZY! :) Well it proves another thing to, right? Bullies are stupid. How stupid is it to send something that can be documented? lol

Great article Lorna.

Thank you! :)

Good article Lorna.

Off topic just a bit! Bullies also are adults in forums (NOT this one in particular!). Bullies prevent others from speaking their minds. I've a hunch we'll be reading more about this in the future.

Yeah hon... I think back to when I was growing up... at least back then the teasing & bullying was only limited to school hours.

The closest thing I can think of that would come to that would be getting harassing phone calls. Geesh! LOL :roll: #-o rotf

I know exactly what you mean. I think the worst part for me was when my friends in the neighborhood joined in the name calling and such, just to fit in at school :( Sheesh...Some friends, huh :-k

Oh mercy, we are dating ourselves :wink: :mrgreen:
