I hate the way the word bully is thrown around these days, the more it's used the less impact it has especially for those who are actually being mercilessly bullied in real life. Lets not forget people have taken their own lives because they feel they have no where to turn / no way out. Jale is handling the situation well, the behaviour demonstrated on the show can be well be identified as bullying behaviour but jale is actually pretty hard, she takes it, knows they are dishing it out and doesn't react. Pauline, Helen and co would love her to react as it then justifies their feelings. A less self assured person could have either flipped or broken down by now. However you dress it up, childish name calling, pack mentality or bullying for me it makes pretty uncomfortably viewing and not entertaining as it's persistent. I found the Helen / Danielle argument entertainment because that's what it was, an argument. Not persistent, constant belittling and isolating behaviour.
