Copy or just click on the embed code below to see the infographic full size. It’s very elaborate and I’m wondering if it’s too much? Or just cutting edge and effective??? If you think it works, please share the primary message you take away from it, and either leave it here in a comment or give it to the person who designed and created it: Tony Shin

I’m a Mom Who Blogs About Neuroscience
In addition to being the mother of two sons, I'm a science writer, focusing on the mental health concerns that can rob a parent's much needed sleep. A little over 10 years ago, when my then 17 year-old son Alex was diagnosed with schizophrenia, I desperately needed a blog like this. In my posts, I put the latest research about child and adolescent mental health into plain talk that parents can use. You'll hear about treatment that includes therapy and medication. I have no agenda, other than mental wellness. There's plenty here also on emotional resilience, and prevention. Please ask your own questions, and I promise to do my best to find answers.
Lastly, in this blog I am speaking only for myself as an individual. The views expressed in any post or article do not represent those of my current employer, PLOS, The Public Library of Science.

It’s an interesting infographic….although I do feel the first portion (about jerks) is potentially a turn-off to readers. I’m also uncertain about giving such prominence to the concept that bullies tend to have early learning problems with language… lower verbal IQs… poor academic performance. It suggests that bullies are mentally less dexterous than others, which is really not accurate. Bullies can be intelligent, verbally agile and high-achieving scholars just as easily as they can be academic drop-outs. Still, I plan to use this in my research because it’s one of the most well-rounded infographics I’ve seen, inasmuch as it touches upon many different aspects of bullying.
