Societal Bullying-taking the Bully by the Horns








Bullying is often used to transfer the hurt one feels onto others. It is usually done in an effort to make one feel better about oneself. Some bullies may also be victims of bullying.

Often this causes the feeling of low self esteem and by bullying others it creates a false impression of feeling important or superior that fleetingly replaces the pain and insecurity they hold inside. More...Click Below:

Hello,

Regarding the above article on *BULLYING*

Thank you for using my quotes.

"Taking the Bully by the Horns" now has a new website:
http://kathynoll.com

Thank you for your interest in my books and my work with bullying — both of which won me Glamour Magazine's Woman of the Year Award and Toyota's Moving Forward Award for "Saving Children's Lives, Making the World a Better Place, and Empowering Those in Need."

Children need to feel loved, valued, and understood. Begin working today to promote healthy communication and do all you can to help both the perpetrators and victims of bullying end this vicious cycle.

Kids who use violence to resolve conflicts grow up to be adults who use violence to resolve conflicts. And schools who do not take steps to control bullying behavior face negative consequences such as failing their academic mission, losing enrollment, and litigation.

46% of schools do not take steps toward bullying prevention. Don't let your school accept the label of being "unsafe."

For the past 10 years, child on child violence has been increasing. Physical abuse, harassment, and robbery have driven many victims to substance abuse or suicide.

The US Justice Department says 80% of all students have been the victims of some form of Bullying.

It's time to start Taking the Bully by the Horns.

Best Wishes for a Bully-Free Future,

Kathy Noll
