Normal bullying hasn't taken anybody's life. Weak people have taken their own lives. Bullying is a natural, normal part of the human experience. Through it, kids learn to grow, learn to handle adversity, and get a sense of humor about themselves. I was bullied and did some bullying as a kid. It was completely healthy. Demonizing bullying is the flip side of the pussy culture we've created. On the other side of that pussy culture is where there are kids' sports leagues that don't have winners and losers, all-star teams that every kid in the league makes, and no grades in school. It's a societal defect that needs to be fixed, and fast.
