Quotes:

“A bully is someone who tries to intimidate or control through body language, words, or actions. Once it becomes physical, that’s assault—and that’s a different issue entirely.”

“Bullying is rarely about you—it’s about the other person’s pain. If you heal your emotional triggers, you can respond with purpose instead of reacting from hurt.”

“There’s a fine line between discipline and bullying. Discipline calls out wrong behavior in love and truth; bullying attacks the person for being themselves.”
