There’s more to a person’s personality than what may be exposed on the outside. Shirley Jackson’s short story, “The Possibility of Evil”, has an excellent example of how a person’s true nature can differ from how they portray themselves to others.

Miss Strangeworth’s character is developed by her actions, the narrator’s description of her, and the interactions that others have with her.

Most couples get married and have children shortly after, and all decision made by the couples directly affect their children. Studies show that divorce has one of the most negative effects on children.

What appears to be bullying is not always bullying. There is this misconception that when someone disagrees with another person or is hurtful towards that person, bullying always seems to be what they say is going on. Although statistics shows that one in four kids are bullied, all aggressive actions are not bullying.

Bullies have more power over their victims and always want to be on top. They enjoy displaying the power they have over their victim.
