Studies show that 21% have witnessed adult bullying, while 23% have been aware. Currently, in the U.S 7% of the workers are being bullied. No one in the workplace should be left out.They call it a \u201cworkplace\u201d, which is believed to be a place to work not only with yourself but with others. Over 60 million workers in the U.S, are affected by workplace bullying. Workers even quit their job because of the bullying that is affecting their present and future.<\/p>\n<p>Some adult bullies even go as far as to bully their opposite gender. It is shown that 69% of bullies are men, and 60% of bullied targets are women. There are adult female bullies too, but most women bullies bully mostly by their gender. Bosses bully 56% of the time, which seems absurd! Co-workers bully 30% of the time! So the bosses bully more than their workers which is ridiculous! Who are the workers suppose to tell when they got a bully behind their back? Who\u2019s suppose to protect the victim? Obviously not the boss, because he\u2019s the bully!<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/iblog.dearbornschools.org\/journalism\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/929\/2014\/11\/IMG_1537-alhaiddi.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-202\" src=\"https:\/\/iblog.dearbornschools.org\/journalism\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/929\/2014\/11\/IMG_1537-alhaiddi-225x300.jpg\" alt=\"IMG_1537 alhaiddi\" width=\"225\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/iblog.dearbornschools.org\/journalism\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/929\/2014\/11\/IMG_1537-alhaiddi-225x300.jpg 225w, https:\/\/iblog.dearbornschools.org\/journalism\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/929\/2014\/11\/IMG_1537-alhaiddi-768x1024.jpg 768w, https:\/\/iblog.dearbornschools.org\/journalism\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/929\/2014\/11\/IMG_1537-alhaiddi-280x373.jpg 280w, https:\/\/iblog.dearbornschools.org\/journalism\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/929\/2014\/11\/IMG_1537-alhaiddi-660x880.jpg 660w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 225px) 100vw, 225px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u201cBullying is usually when someone has more power than the other.\u201d Narjis Alhacham who is an 8th Grader at Unis Middle School states, making a valid point. Most people understand that bullying occurs throughout schools, social media and any place involving people. The only problem is, student\/adults don\u2019t confront the bully. They\u2019re either scared, or don\u2019t wanna get involved. You have to tell someone, so this matter doesn&#8217;t repeat itself.<\/p>\n<p>Sarah Alhaidi, McCollough Unis Journalist<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Do bullies ever outgrow their former actions?
