Some Bullying Testimonials
“When I was bullied I would tell them to stop but, it never worked. I used to show weakness and that I was scared but, I learned that's what they feed on. If you show weakness then they know your easy to get to. So my suggestion is to ignore them and stand up for yourself! Be strong!” (www.niot.org)
“I believe that there are some great solutions out there, but the most important, I think, is teaching the kids how to stick up for themselves in these situations. It helps add strength to their character as well as gives them more self-esteem. Also, teaching the kids to stand up for another adds to this. It helps others recognize that we are all one and adds to the sense of community. My largest concern in that some bullying issues start from home, they are taught by controlling or bullying parents. So just maybe the kid who is a bully needs to be taught that this is wrong as well as their role models? Maybe there needs to be a class for the parents as well as the children! Life will change when you start being the change you wish to see and empowering each individual to own their own power instead of giving it away to others.” (www.niot.org)
