Compare shoving at age 2, age 12, and age 22. What makes these situations different is: A. Maturity. We expect developmental difference and if they don't happen, it indicates a problem. Normal but undesirable behavior at age 2 would sociopathic if done at age 22. Toddlers don't get arrested if they bite someone, while adults do; I would claim that is justifiable. B. Destructive potential. Mature people are faster, stronger, and smarter; a bar brawl has a greater chance for broken bones, concussions, etc. than a playground fight. --- That said, there are things in relationships you have to suck up and get over at work; they are different than for a middle schooler though. |

That isn't even destructive. Broken bones heal and you're healthy again. Bullying a child, that is destructive.
