Social Aggression

There is a relatively new name for bullying...social aggression. Some year back "relational aggression" became known to mean girls bullying girls using relationships to emotionally harm others. This problem is becoming worse and is also now being referred to as social aggression. But whatever the name, it is still harmful. A dictionary definition of "bully" is abuser. We can dress up the problem in whatever outfit that is currently in vogue, but an abuser by any other name is an abuser.

If you are a parent, school personnel, or deal with groups of children and bullying is a problem, you may be interested in my Guide on relational aggression...it tells what it is and what can be done about it. The Guide is sent as an email attachment so there are no shipping charges. The 27 page Guide may be ordered for $15 here:
