I think of bullying in other terms - I don't think L is at any more risk of bullying than any other child, but rather the bully will find someone to pick on no matter who is in the room. However, I do worry about the vulnerability to bullies in some of my kids more than others.

And, I agree with Hayes.

We've had a couple instances of bullying in our short parenting careers, and those times were all school related. Oh - wait - and the cousin I've talked about. Family is a little harder/touchier. I definitely have a tendency to "mama bear" out in that situation, and never hesitate to involve another child's parent(s).
