ABSTRACT
There are many people, groups and organisations willing to help people who are bullied. Some people would say that neuro-linguistic programming (NLP) evolved out of cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT). Although neuro-linguistic programming is not a recognised scientific discipline, it contains some useful ideas that can help to deal with bullying. Whatever the reason, if people take some responsibility for themselves then they are less likely to get bullied. It's much like staying safe on the streets at night. Although it is not necessarily someone's fault if they get mugged in a dark, lonely place, it would probably have been more responsible if they had not been walking out on their own at night, in a dark alley, talking on their expensive mobile phone with their bulging wallet hanging out of their back pocket, and carrying their brand new laptop.
