Photo: FacebookA "vulnerable" elderly woman living in a New Zealand retirement village is being targeted by other residents who have sent her an anonymous note attacking her gardening ability. The passive-aggressive note was shared to social media to raise awareness of the insidious nature of bullying, with the warning that "age is no barrier" to the harmful behaviour. The letter, signed by "Daisy May and cronies", goes on to namecheck the unit's previous resident, saying that "many of us have photos of her gorgeous seasonal displays". The personal attacks continue as the letter lashes the resident for being "socially inept" before offering a "working bee" to tackle the garden. It makes me so sad to think our vulnerable elderly people are still dealing with these things."
