I am a believer in the fact that people are inherently good. That might not be totally true, because bullies are still around, but more and more kids are quickly taught that bullying is not a nice behavior.
There is however still a difference between people who live in a competitive world view and humans who live in a creative world view. The latter however is a Grand Overall Design that takes care of its own. If you start caring much about others, others will care about you, because you always get what you give.
