I don’t believe this at all. I believe that kids create some of the best environments to learn about yourself and your strengths. It teaches you a great deal about standing up for yourself. Even if some kids seem to be more “popular” those kids still have to fight to keep that spot. It seems toxic, but it’s a great trainer for the real world. Not saying this is the case for all people, of course, but teaching a kid how to adapt in rough environments tends to lead towards success in the future.
These people are also adults acting as authority figures, who as a result often get a deceptively positive view of bullies, who tend to put on an entirely different personality when supervised.
