Likely the same conclusion would have been arrived at had they done a study at 1600 Pennsylvania ave. Add to that arrogance, egomania, antagonistic, and on and on and on.

Remember ... America was pretty (righteously) arrogant in the 50's
WE were the winners on TWO fronts
AND THE ENTIRE WORLD KNEW IT, TOO !!!
They really, really had to work hard to tear us down and apart, but Trump has injected us with about half a million clinical mics o' self esteem and real hope

This finding is an artifact of the way “bully” is defined, I think. I’m guessing that their definition of a bully is anyone who makes one feel badly about oneself. Thus, skilled, competent, independent, self-reliant people are encompassed as “bullies” by their reckoning.

And where is the high school bully today?
All that “self-esteem” (which is itself a questionable metric) goes straight down the crapper when bully boy hits a new situation and someone else is top dog.
To: rjsimmon
Many of these bullies masquerade as victims of bullying. Some quite convincingly.

The term “bully” is now meant to deride conservatives with manly traits. I was “bullied”, it toughened me up, I owe those guys a debt.

“Experts suggest that schools might expand competitive, supervised activities as an alternative outlet to channel dominating behavior.”
No, everybody has to be a winner! Otherwise, it’s not fair...

Hmm. Second or third grade some clown was bullying me until I kicked his butt (realtive to the age bracket) and from then on he followed me around like a whipped pup. Had a similar incident in HS when the bully surrounded by his minions tried to pick a fight with me in the hallway. I dropped my books and got in his face and challenged him to meet me in front of the gym after school without his minions. No show. And, I’m a wuss actually and try to steer clear of confrontations. :>}
