Why People Bully?

There are numerous reasons for why people bully in our society today. Some people bully because they aren't happy at home or at the workplace. Others may bully because they are feeling neglected and not receiving the attention that they need so they look to other people to take their anger out on. Another reason people bully is for the simple fact that some just like the feeling of being in control, they're fueled by power.

Children who experience social rejection themselves are more likely to 'pass it on' to others. Children who experience academic failure are also more likely to bully others. Issues that may seem so petty or little to someone can be the reason behind someone being bullied because often times it's being overlooked or swept under the rug and it's time for that to change.
