Bullied, are we?

So let's imagine these scenarios.

1. a girl being alone.
2. a hyperactive kid being left out.
3. Filler friend. (“Filler friend” exclusively coined by me considering how often I’ve felt it in my life, but a brief synopsis of being the “filler friend” is pretty much being there only when someone is bored. Don’t get me twisted of course friends want to hang out when they’re bored, that’s a natural thing. This doesn’t sound awesome, but sadly so many have come to view that as the only means of friendship.)

We have heard a lot about bullying and its types. (Physical bullying, Emotional bullying, Verbal bullying, and cyberbullying.)
Today let's take a look at yet another dangerous form of bullying which usually goes unnoticed.


Social Exclusion- Bullying at its Worst. 
Social exclusion is “a multidimensional process of progressive social rupture, detaching groups and individuals from social relations and institutions and preventing them from full participation in the normal, normatively prescribed activities of the society in which they live”.  It refers to not being included within a given social network (but not necessarily ignored).


I would love to hear your thoughts on this,
