Drama for my mama

Is bullying not the most pathetic method people use to make themselves feel better? Especially grown-ups, who've surely suffered through it at some point and know better. I know we all have our problems, but it's painful to see someone who's never done anything to hurt anyone else (and doesn't really know how to stand up to bullies) be so deeply damaged by some jerk whose problems have nothing to do with his victim. Grrrr.
