Why Bullying Continues

Young children are meaning makers. They are born with an innate and insatiable need to acquire experiences and gain understandings.
A. A. Milne, Not That It Matters

In her article, “Mean Girls and Boys,” in Children’s Voice (November 2010; cwla.org), Meghan Williams argues that we are not taking bullying seriously enough and that it ought to be considered a form of abuse.  She observes…

“Many complaints of bullying are dismissed with comments like ‘boys will be boys,’ or ‘it’s just talk, they’re not hurting anyone.”  But experts warn that it can be incredibly harmful to treat bullying like a rite of passage or a trivial incident.”
