Low level of education and poverty of families force the children to work as a salesperson on the crossroads, hoping to improve their financial situation. Their combats bring about verbal violence expressed in bullying. The anti-verbalism appearing in these children‘s discourse guarantees their survival in the street while some suffer from mental disorders.

The outcomes of the research can help the counsellors to plan a specific linguistic program to guide the bullying children and to recognize the onset of bullying discourse among students.

The recordings of quarrels, combats and competition discourse of crossroad youth in Hamedan were used as the main materials of collecting data which were analysed in content through CDA methods, considering socioeconomic status and educational background. Most youth used ascribing ugly and awesome attributes to their rivals’ parents and sisters classified into Using racial, ethnic or sexual slurs and epithets along with calling hurtful names. They expressed taboos to create a secured environment to earn money. The elder the children were, the greater the number of swears they used. The families had little or no control on these youThe personality formation of bullying children with verbal violence is concomitant with their family‘s education, income and culture.As the children grew older, they became farther from the house and relied more on their abilities to earn more money. The pressures of security forces to collect the children from the streets forced them more and more to be equipped with anti-verbalism to become the hero of competition realm and search for by-pass actions to survive.
