About this ebook
HIGHLY RECOMMENDED for Teachers, Parents and Teens, especially in this day of social media abuse and harassment.
Are those who are bullied, victims? You bet! Is your child bullied? Maybe you aren't aware of the signs. Cyberbullying, harassment, embarrassing others, tormenting, threatening or humiliating, and spousal abuse are all considered 'bullying.' It happens to children, teens, and adults. It occurs in pre-school, elementary school, college, home, and in the workplace. It is apparent in all walks of life. Bullying occurs in every town, city, state, province and country, and it has many ugly faces. But with today's technology, mobile phones, internet, Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, and a host of other platforms, I'm going to emphasize more on children, students, and teens, because that is where it commences and for most, carries over into their adult lives.

DEDICATION
I dedicate this book to every child, teen, and adult who have been a victim of being bullied. Also, to my two beautiful daughters, Amanda and Katie.
To the bullies I only say, shame on you!!
You have enemies? Good. That means you've stood up for something, sometime in your life.
- Winston Churchill

CHAPTER 1: THE PARADIGM OF BULLYING
Think back to the days when you were still young, going to school.

How many of us can claim to have been bullied in our younger lives? Or, how many of us can claim to have seen other children get bullied? The term 'bullying' has a very comprehensive meaning, contrary to what most would believe. Some would argue that we are bullied even during our professional lives, when we are working our jobs and are forced to work harder, or perform different tasks by our bosses.
Bullying, like many other activities, has its varying degrees. Some bullies are content with pushing other students around; others are more exuberant and hit other students to force them to their will. However, there are those who get down to abusing others, forcing
