    My 6 yr old was bullied in school to the point it got phsical and she was sent to the hospital. Bullies do start young, and in most cases are not delt with.

    It's really interesting to see children interact at a young age. I often wonder if the "bullies" are always the same, crowded home, not enough attention from mom/dad, etc... My 18 month old is just learning that other kids aren't always as nice or forgiving as she is, and that is a hard thing to learn at any age!

    I remember being bullied as soon as I was old enough to play with the neighborhood kids. Little girls were especially catty and mean.
