I'm now pretty sure that I've been bullied on many occasions, however proving it was bullying - instead of humerous banter which it used to be - is no doubt going to be a problem.
Physical abuse is also something I suffered a few times at school, but I guess I can't do anything about that as it was before 'the cane' was outlawed deemed to be inapropriate . . much the same as the clip around the ear I had from the villiage bobby a few times.
Oh well, no use crying over spilt milk, I'll just have to learn to live with it.

Sometimes a claim of banter is made in an attempt to try and get away with bullying. The best person to ask which it actually is (whether meant as a joke or otherwise) is the recipient themselves as it is they who get to decide.
