Negative interactions can sometimes be a help, or a part of life, or whatever is the right phrase. In Jr High one day after school some kids beat me and a friend up (for no reason that I could figure out). Of course, I won't say "it made me who I am today" or any baloney like that but it certainly helped cement a resolve to not be them.

Yes, for sure the individual kid is the prime thing a person worries about. I am glad to hear he does well.
- wccrawford 4y agoI still hate bullies to this day, but there's no denying that they made me tougher.

Didn’t make me tougher, but it made me realize even as you become an adult there are simply people to be avoided.
