Bullying Still a Serious Drawback/ A Children’s Book with an Answer
Meet Julian, the hero of our story, and let him take you on a fun filled ride through one in all the toughest issues a child will encounter. Somehow he puts a new spin and distinctive and positive outlook on an age previous, however current drawback that every one children endure at some purpose in their lives.
Bullying has not solely not gone away; it's increased in its intensity and talent to damage.
Varied recent incidents documented in newspapers, on television, film and Net, can testify to this. With access to therefore much additional information at a younger age and outrageous behavior becoming the norm and additional commonplace each day, this specific act isn't being given the serious attention or thought it should be as it takes a backseat to a lot of spectacular events.
One example would possibly be the Columbine shootings...I believe that the perpetrators of this crime were likely bullied or otherwise belittled. We can continue this train of thought with the Menendez brothers and the media attention given to the poor fourteen woman overwhelmed by jealous friends and aired on YouTube. Some a lot of recent examples embody, Gary Hansen who eventually hanged himself (March, 2005) because of persistent bullying. Though his folks did everything in their power to combat his troubles rightfully, to the point of taking him out of school for two years, his trials resurfaced on his re-entry to school. Sadly we tend to all grasp the end result.
Sadly he is not alone, in 2004 Travis Sleeve of Conora Sask, shot he for the identical reason, once two and half months of consistent bullying. As did a fellow classmate, a fourteen year girl, dead by her own hand. Although things was not related the end result was the same.
In Mission B.C the victim was Dawn Marie Wesley, also fourteen, who felt the need to finish her pain by hanging herself. March of 2000, Hamed Nastoh jumped off the Pattula Bridge in Surrey B.C., jettisoning an intensive suicide note for a family fully unaware of his troubles. In November of 1997, Reena Virk of Victoria, B.C. was crushed unconscious and left to drown by six teenage women and one boy. These are tragic, recent and varied samples of how serious this issue is and the explanation we have a tendency to should all recognize and address this issue. I can assume of no higher case than that of Myles Neuts of Chatham Ontario, who at ten years recent was hung from an coat hook in an elementary school by classmates who brought friends to, "watch the dummy," until one kid took pity and told the teacher. Even thus once four days in an exceedingly coma, he eventually passed away.
You are probably wondering what should have transpired to incite this sort of violence. You may not believe it but you have got in all probability experienced it... Most of it began with, “Massive Ears, Nice Garments, Dummy, Fatty, etc....jog her memory?
While technology has advanced, and we have a tendency to would hope data in addition, the same recent prejudices remain, with the added bonus of "cyber bullying" that may be a whole new topic. The underside line is that the answer begins at home and is solved by education and example. This book empowers the bullied, nevertheless does not worsen the aggressor and shows a replacement way to communicate. I am unable to suppose of any other stressor on youngsters with the ability to maim, mutilate, kill or cause death by one's own hand.
