That was a great article. I would have given the "study" more credence if they had compared peanuts to peanuts.

Instead, they skewed their numbers (intentionally, no doubt) by
A) interviewing parents, as opposed to the kids
B) Comparing "bullying" to "bullying, teasing, or harassment."

While bullying and harassment seem pretty close to me, there are LOTS of grey areas of teasing. In fact, one quoe from the allergymoms.com lady pointed out that she didn't know if it was good-natured teasing or bullying.

This is why I don't trust special interest groups, especially when they have a statistical study. I know too much about statistics to know I could take the same data, hypothesize the exact opposite conclusion and prove it.
