No Bullies
As a Leader, as an adult - stand up and take a stand for our children. By signing a Petition to make May 31st - "No Bullies!" Day.
Why is this important?
Hearing about another small child (Joel Morales) here in NY City - hanging himself due to the bullying of fellow students was heart wrenching. (And while I find the poor parenting that "allows" a child to treat another so poorly reprehensible.) I think a more positive approach would be to get Politicians, Pro-Athletes, Movie Stars (the new Spider Man was bullied) to all wear (bright blue - the color of a blue sky) - T-shirts, or hats, or post on their Twitter Feeds etc. - the phrase: "No Bullies" on a single day every year.
For the President, Mayor Bloomberg, etc. - to make a National "No Bullies!" day. And for it to be celebrated in all schools. Shame these boys and girls who think this type of abuse is acceptable. Make them conformists and hypocrites at the least. Make their parents think about something other than themselves at least one day a year. In the same country where we can cheer the you-tube video of (Matt) running around a school field 2 times, a small boy in NYC hung himself because he saw no hope! We the adults are who should be ashamed and stand up and do something!
