Is verbal bullying really that bad or are people overly sensitive?

Verbal bullying should not be tolerated because it hurts the persons feelings if they are sensitive to emotions. The bullies don't think about what they say and not think about the feelings of the person they are bullying because they are cruel

overly sensitive ******* i'd say. the things said are often true anyway, they're just too weak to handle it

It reflects on the bully, and not in a good way. It's sad that people think it's okay to treat others badly or try to raise themselves up by putting others down. It makes a sad statement about the people who do it, and those who condone it.

Verbal bullying is really bad

YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS

Yes, it is. And it really annoys me when people try to blame the person being bullied by saying they're too sensitive or need to grow a thicker skin. It doesn't deal with the people who are causing the problem, it just makes the victim feel even worse.

the pen is mightier than the sword

The whole of civilization, is built and destroyed with words.

Nothing is more powerful than words.

It is bad.

When you put the word "bully" out there...it's not a positive thing.

Bullying is bad..negative.. whether a person is too sensitive or not.
