Were you bullied in middle school? Were you the bully? This BCR is for you. We talked with Simone Ellin – a journalist who sought out those in her middle school “cool girl clique” who befriended and then bullied her.  Now grown -- some would not talk to her but several did – and her recent re-telling of her experiences in Lilith magazine and the Huffington Post went viral; her Facebook creds skyrocketed. And as she writes in Jmore – “Finally I am the popular girl.”

Also, we spoke with Dieter Wolke, a psychological researcher at The University of Warwick near Coventry, England, who studies the long-term effects of bullying on the bully and victim. His findings may surprise you.
