Feel free to talk about anything that you want.

Yeah being shocked into looking inside oneself can often conjure up the word hypocrisy ... :lol:

Enough fun ... I must away! :wink:

Have you looked recently inside yourself recently ?

Personally I feel that if I say or do something to DELIBERATELY hurt someone makes me feel bad,

Do you ever feel like that Oracle, I believe it is called having a concience, I would not know a Greek word for it.

Identifying the underdog in terms of pysical bullying is fairly straightforward. Maybe we have moved on to Cyber bullying or like. Walking away or saying it is non of my business seems to be the way of the coward, or maybe human nature now dictates, why should I get involved ?

Cyber bullying is on the increase, the thing that frightens me is that young kids are now using mobile phones to delivery anonymous threats to thier class mates and even teachers. Time to take a stand I feel.

I agree, some schools have policy in place to deal with this sort of behaviour.

Things are never straightforward .. :wink:

Some of the ones that believe they are the most earnest may be most blinded, ...... or have short term memories, the saving grace of a clear conscience... :lol:


But I really must dash off ....

I can only speak for myself of course, my memory is excellent, and my concience is as clear as a mountain stream.

Enjoy your day Oracle, perhaps we will chat again soon. !!

My daughter is after a mobile, but I am digging my heels in for just this reason, she is 10, and very sensitive. Do you think I am being fair Purdey ??

Yes I do, my daughter went through the same, like yourself I dug my heels in. Now at thirteen she has one, rarely uses it, but it is there in case of emergencies.
