Compassion is an excellent tool in handling a bully once he has been gotten into communication. No one does what he believes to be wrong or bad. He does what he feels driven toward beyond his ability to analyze.But usually, before that can be done, he has to be halted from harming. in some cases I guess these might be concurrent actions when well managed.
Knowing the right level of effort to use, when, is often a difficult art.
I greatly admire and enjoy the posts I have seen here -- thanks, all.
