Why Your Parents Didn't Mean to Hurt You
A good bully has gobs of empathy. Good bullies excel at picking out the sensitive kids and picking out the kid s who won't fight back. The only way to skilfully mock and humiliate another kid is to know what that other kid is thinking and feeling. You may have stories in which your parents mind mapped you very well and they used their knowledge of your thoughts and feelings to hurt you more deeply. It can on be true if that other person lacks the ability to mind mapeu if they lacked the ability to empathize.
