In the end we all just want to be acknowledged. We all want to know we are loved and accepted just for who we are. To truly listen to a child and let him or her talk about whatever they want without interrupting or judging or turning the conversation back to yourself could be HUGE for these kids. Definitely something for me to work on.

It makes my mama bear instincts come out and want to go give whoever hit him a piece of Mary justice. Hopefully this isn't an ongoing thing for him.

I have a middle schooler and the bullying thing comes up weekly--lucky for her, the school is really on top of things, but it can do so much damage. <br /><br />Nice to meet you and happy A to Z!Lisahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14610065806771659077noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2098833587509288901.post-67148632269560356532012-04-02T15:13:51.703-07:002012-04-02T15:13:51.703-07:00Bullying is one of those tough things in this worl...Bullying is one of those tough things in this world. I wish it would change. The only thing we can do is be the one who shows those bullied children how wonderful they are. Even just sitting to talk with them (even if they just talk about cats and dogs or french fries). Sometimes just being there can help.<br />Thanks for posting.Jessica L.

I wish we could go straight to the cops and file a law suit just like adults can when we assault each other. I think there needs to be a law on ALL forms of bullying!<br /><br />Elizabeth<br><br /><a href="http://elizabethmueller.blogspot.com/p/blogging-from-to-z-april-challenge-sign.html" rel="nofollow">A to Z co-host</a>Elizabeth Muellerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06028099814857743134noreply@blogger.com
