I understand people wanting to leave, but please reconsider. As someone who has been bullied, I feel that temporarily taking a time out/leaving is often needed for our own self-protection. Permanently leaving says “you win, now go bully someone else”. As stated above and in other posts, we are adults. We can choose meanness or we can choose kindness by our words. This is a print forum, we don’t have body language or inflection available to temper what we say. We have no way of knowing what the person reading may be going through or what is in their past. Habrish put it well. Think before you hit post or reply.
