Twitter followers don't mean jack careerwise...if they did his sales would be better obviously.

If people unfollow him oh well. What he's saying makes total sense and IMO people are just not paying attention.

His point is not every altercation between kids is bullying. Not every time a child gets into an argument or scrap at school are they being bullied. Kids fight. Kids are rude. As an adult you damn well better know how to deal with people's attitudes without feeling like a victim all the time.

His point is that it's become very trendy to say "I've been bullied" or "that's bullying"

Adam IS bullied online, even by his own fans sometimes. He's developed a thick enough skin to deal with it and that's what he's trying to say everyone needs.

Take the power back from the bullies and nasty people who have nothing but negative things to say. Every reaction just invites more of the same because they crave the attention and satisfaction of having power over someone else. [/quote]

I disagree! There are rude kids, but the most of them are not rude according to my life experience. I assume if you are rude as a child, you become a rude adult as well. When you are adult, you know how to hide it, but you can still be rude, when nobody identifies you (i.e. anonym on Internet).

Bullying is actually a crime according to the Finnish Law and many school bullying cases have become a police affair in Finland.

Here is a GOOGLE translation of a part of a Finnish review:
(http://www.mll.fi/nuortennetti/kiusaaminen/syita_ja_seurauksia/mita_laki_sanoo/)

Bullying can be assault if the bullying is used physical violence, causing pain to another or damaging the health of another.

Both physical and emotional violence can harm the health of another. Thus, the mental bullying can be a criminal assault, for example, if another mental health will be harmed. Also causing pain does not necessarily mean physical violence, as the pain can also be a spiritual bullying.

Bullying can be physical violence such as hitting, pushing, kicking, tripping strangling, hair pulling or attacking.

The use of physical violence is punishable by a slight assault, even if the victim should not be the work injury and pain. Assault sentenced to a fine or to imprisonment not exceeding two years.

Bullying bully can also be guilty of causing injury, in a situation where the bully is bullied accidentally caused the injury. Vammatuottamuksesta (hurting someone) sentenced to a fine or imprisonment up to six months.

Damages liability have no age limit, so the less than 15-year-old bully may be sentenced to pay damages to the victim of bullying, which has caused damage.
