I save my empathy and compassion for genuine victims and I do believe it is a choice. Most people don't see it as a choice, but life is a series of choices. I think it is pretty black and white, I think all those shades of gray make a bad situation worse. I am most definitely not trying to shame or bully anyone, I am saying there is another option, another choice than being a bully or a victim.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09933372317713863193noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4012792648705431930.post-50200310838513521742013-03-20T12:15:50.440-07:002013-03-20T12:15:50.440-07:00Well, I've just posted on the other article.

Ultimately we are each responsible for our own lives.<br /><br />Bullying is a complicated subject and while you've made a good point, you've also simplified it down to black and white.<br /><br />I don't think victims choose to be victims. They just don't have the self confidence and other emotional tools to change the situation in a healthy manner. <br /><br />Some victims learn other less healthy coping skills to deal with the bullies in their lives. This doesn't make them complicit with the bullying situation. It makes them normal human beings coping with a difficult situation to the best of their current ability.<br /><br />It's a big world full of people with a variety of skills and experiences. Life isn't easy and we all do the best we can at any given moment.Threadlove Embroidery Designshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07826416701482608846noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4012792648705431930.post-80149294027076572142013-03-20T11:34:38.875-07:002013-03-20T11:34:38.875-07:00You go, girl!!!

Stating an opinion is not bullying in the least. There will always be those folks out there who actually enjoy being the victims because it allows them to manipulate others into having sympathies for them.<br />Don't stop (as if you could) stating flat out how you feel, Cairn! Honesty is the best policy. :)Martha Jane Orlandohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11620499267401065780noreply@blogger.com
