The “B” word gets thrown around very easily. But calling everything bullying trivializes the very serious cases of peer abuse, and it gets in the way of helping kids resolve conflicts with peers.
My TEDxAsburyPark talk is called “Is it Bullying or Ordinary Meanness?” It was selected as an “Editor’s Pick” by TED, and it just posted today! Please watch it and share it with people you know who’d be interested.
Excellent. I shared on Facebook!
