Did They Have a Bad Childhood

Ruffians badger and bother the rest of the world, without care. I see them coming with their mean attitude and try not to stare. I wonder who has hurt them so badly, that they want to hurt others. Did they have a horrible childhood? Can we blame it all on their mothers? They don't always dress the part, sometimes they wear business suits. Sit in their offices eating elaborately rich foods that causes their toots. Pick on their employees and they are nasty as heck to their brothers. Did they have a horrible childhood? Can we blame it all on their mothers? Ruffians bully themselves into the best seats on a bus and a plane. They are braggadocio and boastful, and to others, a huge pain. I would rather not sit anywhere near one, if I had my druthers. Did they have a horrible childhood? Can we blame it all on their mothers? Ruffians wear suits that make them look like sweet little old ladies. They sit in the subway car and they yell out to the Mrs. O’Gradies. Are loud and obnoxious; Could they be fixed with a few smothers? Did they have a horrible childhood? Can we blame it all on their mothers?

Yes! My sentiments exactly. Bullies exist in our communities just like they do on the schoolyard. I suspect it's more their fathers than their mothers, but I've known some bully mothers!

Sometimes the boss can bully the workers too.
