There have been a number of messages on this discussion group about
bullies and bullying. For example there are these messages:

Now what to my wondering eyes should appear on the Law Librarians
discussion group but a message with a number of resource links on adult
bullying in the workplace. Now I have, myself, posted a number of
messages on lists like Sport Psychology, Athletic Training and Sports
History regarding incidents of adult violence including murders at
childrens sports events. Well this group of resources about adults
bullying adults as part of the working day leads to a possible watershed
of thinking on this issue. Do children never learn to stop the practice
of bullying when they become adults or do adults teach the fine art of
bullying to their children, kind of the old which came first, the chicken
or the egg.
First in the SportPsy Archives that are public and open to anyone to read.
I conducted this search in the SportPsy Archives without the quotation
marks
"(parent or parents) and (violent or violence or murder or murders or
assaults or assaulting)" and found "Search Results: 30 matches."
Including these titles:
NEWS: Father, Son Held in Attack on Chicago Coach
NEWS: Yet Another Incident of Criminal Behavior by Parents at Youth Sports
Event
NIGHTLINE: Kids, Sports and Violence
hockey parent beating death
DISCUSSION: Parents Sometimes Exhibit Little Minds In Attitudes Towards
Children's Little League Play
Net-Happenings also has important postings on bullying in the educational
system by children beyond those found in K-12Admin archives.

In short there is quite a large selection of resource laden messages
regarding bullying on the Net-Happenings discussion group:
Searched Groups for net-happenings and bullying. Results 1 - 10 of
about 75. Search took 0.02 seconds

There is also this useful page on the Educational Cyberplayground
regarding the issues of violence among children

neural roots of murder
<http://www.edu-cyberpg.com/Teachers/discipline.html>
So returning to adult bullying at work, having come across the useful
Law-Lib posting of website resources about workplace bulletin, I became
curious as to what might be in published periodicals on the subject.
Here are a few examples of that literature.
Irish report on bullying in the workplace calls for coordinated State
response
Source: Safety & Health Practitioner v. 19 no. 6
Worker Bullying Linked To More Sick Days
Source: Occupational Hazards v. 63 no. 4 April 2001 p. 20
Workplace Bullying: Why You Need to Be Concerned About It
Source: Safety Director's Report no. 01-3 April 2001 p. 7,10-11
Bullying in the Workplace Often Goes Unnoticed
Author: Dunn, Kelly
Source: Workforce v. 79 no. 4 April 2000 p. 28-29
The bully leaves school and heads for the office
Source: Management Today February 1998 p. 12-13
So with all of the above stated, here is the promissed message that is
reposted with permission.
Sincerely,
