Bullies are often
described as someone being different or a bit odd in their childhood,
adolescence, or early adulthood, having an enduring pattern of identity crises,
chaotic self-direction, lack of empathy, hypersensitivity to criticism, and
intimacy. These fragmented artifacts of various personality disorders confuse
school administrators, educators, and workplace leaders because the bully can
also be charismatic individuals waiting to save the day on their terms.
School-related acts of violence or mass school or workplace shootings involve
individuals who exhibited these warning signs in a consistent and enduring
pattern. However, leaders and administrators dismissed the symptoms under the
labels of someone being different or a bit odd. -Dr. Stewart
