Everyday nearly 20% of the U.S. population are found in the schools system either as a student or an adult working in the schools. Meeting the challenge of bullying behavior is a part of everyone of those individuals, as well as the parents of every child attending school.
Bullying can be reduced when schools, parents, community members work together to create a culture of peace, when we all work on cultivating the character of ourselves and our children.
This website is designed to provide opportunity for community members, parents, teachers and students, who are invested in reducing bullying and making an impact on our community to share ideas, resources and experiences. For us to be successful we must work together to make all aware of the impact we can have individually and collectively.
I invite you to join the conversations, ask questions and allow this community to help you and your community reduce bullying.

In the following post I have defined the roles taken on by those who play out social interaction gone awry. We call it bullying and today more than ever before in our history we are aware of the consequences. Unfortunately, just like some other challenges and ills, we hang a label out on behavior that may not fit - just to be able to label it as something, many times hurting more than helping.
