Wow! Thanks for sharing that story, Gina. I know bullies are clever at hiding their abuse, but it shocks me that we as adults aren't more keen to their ways. I remember riding the bus as a young child and observing the abuse a poor family endured at the hands of others riding the bus and the bus driver very ineffectively trying to intervene on their behalf. He did the best he could, I suppose, but I also heard years later that this family also endured terrible abuse in the school. It was sad because these girls endured sexual abuse from their father at home. As if their lives weren't hard enough... Thanks for sharing your difficult story. I'm happy that the end result of your suffering is you may be able to nip that kind of bullying in the bud for some other vulnerable victim.
