I can handle most obstacles in my life but bullying scares the life out of me, literally. I want to thank the people that have stood up to the bullies and those who work to rid the world of bullying. We in Ottawa are very lucky to have the #NoMoreBullies initiative, hosted by Majic 100′s Majic Morning Show with Angie Poirier, Stuntman Stu and Trisha Owens. This program facilitates school assemblies and encourages students to stop bullies in their tracks.
Cyber Bullying scares me the most……..I cried when I watched this video.
With three children at home, two girls and a little boy, my fear is I would not be able to stop the bullying in time to prevent suicide. Burying one of my children is not an option. Please support bullying campaigns in your community, school, town, province or wherever it occurs, help it stop.
Do you have bullying prevention strategy to share or do you actively help with programing in your community?

Scares me too! My daughter has come home with marks made from another little girl at school….this momma bears claws are about to come out!
Have you heard of Nelson the Giant?? I met a lovely woman who has created this amazing campaign which she is trying to get into the schools. Check it out: https://www.facebook.com/NELSONTHEGIANT
Oh, this is such a great post. I think in light of all that has been happening lately with bullying and suicide, many parents are concerned about this too. I know in our last School Council meeting we discussed this. Thanks for sharing. Tweeting this now!
We have an interactive program that just got the winner badge from PTPA. It’s coming up in Spanish too. We teach children not to be easy targets, to focus on their dreams and to stand up against injustice.
Thanks so much!
