So I graduated a few years before this "anti-bullying" movement started, or at least before the media latched onto it (a few years ago when the gay teen suicides prompted it).
While I have my own pessimistic theories on why it's being given so much focus, I was curious; do you see an effect of it in your schools? Do your teachers talk about it? Is a "bully" something that people shame each other for being?
Thanks for your time.

>Lives in Texas, just for reference of my area. Nothing more than a few anti-bullying shirts around campus, the groups at my school are pretty tight knit and protective of their friends, chances are that nerdy kid you're bullying is friends with someone a lot bigger and tougher than you are.
