I am also a survivor who wants to comfort and help others

If you've visited this forum before, you've probably seen my name, and maybe even read some of my replies, since I've posted more than a few times here.  I come here often because I care about all of you, and I would like all of you to be able to overcome the emotional hurts of bullying and become happier people.  My heart goes out to every person who is being bullied today, and to all of you who still feel the effects of past bullying.  My goal here is to show some compassion towards everyone…See More

"Now that school has started, I would like to update this challenge, so that nobody can play the "too late, I already started school and/or blew this resolution" card.  Simply decide not to bully anyone anymore, from now on.  You…"

"Jessica,   You've come to the right place if you are looking for people who share similar pasts and similar struggles.  I was pretty much the same way growing up, and so were many of the adults in my life.  Those were the dark…"

"Hilary, You are not the only one. For a while I thought I was the only one who got bullied mercilessly until I found out it was also happening to some others (not that it made it better for me or anyone else being bullied, or made it OK for the…"

Greg Haefs replied to Patty Weltin's discussion Holding Schools Accountable
"I agree, and I also would like to see some bullies become defendants in these lawsuits.  Maybe the bullies will stop if they realize they will have to pay for their targets' college education or psychotherapy bills once they become adults."

New school year resolutions: a challenge

After reading some of the heartbreaking stories of bullying, not just on this forum, but also on some other websites as well as in Jodee's books (which I could not put down except when I had to because my tears were blurring my vision), I have decided to issue a challenge to any bullies who happen to be on this site. Since a new school year is approaching, or maybe already started for a few students, in a way it is sort of like New Years' Eve, minus the noisemakers, parties, and the big ball…See More

Greg Haefs replied to Sam Kreitzberg's discussion Going into High School
"There are three categories of responses to bullying:  assertive, aggressive, and passive.  Two of the three are at best ineffective, and at worst like trying to douse a fire with gasoline.  Of the three, assertive is best.   Look…"
