[StBernard] BULLYING....PASS THIS ONE ON!!!

[Westley Annis]

	That is what happens when a child bully's
	another child, they may say they're sorry but the scars are there
forever.
	 
	It can be even worse when its a teacher or a coach who bully's the
student.

Kudos to this nameless teacher!!  I wish I knew who she was so she could get
the recognition she deserves!!

 

We need to pass this on so that this message gets to ALL teachers.  AND.it's
a good lesson for parents to teach their children.  Maybe this will help
eliminate bullying!!!  LET'S KEEP THIS GOING TILL WE WIPE OUT BULLYING AND
CHILDHOOD SUICIDES!!

 

*********************************************************

 

A teacher in New York was teaching her class about bullying and gave them
the following exercise to perform: 

 

She had the children take a piece of paper and told them to crumple it up,
stamp on it and really mess it up but do not rip it. 

 

Then she had them unfold the paper, smooth it out and look at how scarred
and dirty it was.

 

She then told them to tell it they were sorry.  Now even though they said
they were sorry and tried to fix the paper, she pointed out all the scars
they left behind.  And that those scars will never go away no matter how
hard they tried to fix it.  That is what happens when a child bully's
another child, they may say they're sorry but the scars are there forever. 

 

The looks on the faces of the children in the classroom told her the message
hit home. 

 

PASS IT ON...OR BETTER YET, if you are a parent or a teacher, do it with
your own child/children.
