Why are there no help hotlines for bullies?

No one really knows what goes on inside the heads of bullies to truly understand why they do the things they do. And actually, there are anger management programs that could possibly help. But that crucial first step is in getting the bully to admit that he is one and then further convince them that they need help.
Is that not the same with the victim?

Nobody want's to admit they have a fault. No one wants to come out and say they are getting bullied, just as much as being the bullier.


There are lots of things that "Getting the person to admit" applies to, and all of them have already brainstormed and come up with various ways whether additions to advertisements, or any addition really to whatever service they're providing. That's where the whole phrase "You are not alone" applies to.

Also do you think anyone wants to get counseling? That would involve admitting to parents about what you are doing, and neither parties in question want to do that. That's the entire reason for anonymous hotline's, to get help on something you don't want anyone to know you're struggling with.


And either way, that's no reason to disregard the idea, there are definitely measures and steps that can be taken in order to increase the persons chance of admitting to themself.
Or maybe they don't even admit it. Maybe we make it manditory that schools gather each kid every year and put them in an enclosed room with a phone, and they are required to talk to a person who's an expert in this, and they can detect what this person's like, because they will probably have a warped perception of them self to begin with. And if someone's a candidate, we don't need people coming down on them, we need people to treat this as they would an abuse case, bully case, etc. we need people to carefully and methodically coax them in to it, and tell them to do, or ask them for small things. That can be as little as if the "expert" thinks this person fits the description as saying "I'd love to know more, can you talk to me again?", and slowly be able to learn more and more about the situation, and slowly help them or get them to change. It works in many other area's in which people have trouble admitting faults like this.
Which is better:
To die with ignorance, or to live with intelligence?

Truth doesn't accommodate to personal opinions.
The choice is yours.
