Hello CJs,
We think that we are born with certain abilities and we are! Abilities have to be developed. We are given the capacity to learn through our left brain/natural intelligence. However, we also have to be exposed to the information. We are given the ability to think/create new ideas through our right brain yet these skills must be learned. We are not born with EI. We are given the emotional centers of the brain in which to learn these attributes. The seven EI skills are acquired through parenting and social experiences.
And so we have bullies because this is what they learned and experienced.
Please feel free to comment, Karen
