My Thoughts on Bullying

I have never been bullied, nor have I ever bullied anyone. Bullying is very wrong and now that I have grown older and more mature I see that. Around the time that I was in sixth grade I had a friend who thought that he was better than others and to me at that time it seemed very cool. He would boss other kids around and he would never get no for an answer. I think the others were just scared of what he might do to them if they wouldn't listen to whatever he told them to do. Now, I don't understand why  they were scared if he was very scrawny and he wouldn't actually hurt them, well, at least not phisically. Then again, bullying is also an emotional matter which can be as harmful as physical bullying or even more severe. People have many reasons to bully. One reason people bully could be because they have problems at home so they need to hurt someone to feel better about his situation.
