Here it is almost the middle of July. School will be
starting soon. Where has the summer gone? Stopped in our local Walmart and was
greeting by shelves of back to school things, backpacks, notebooks, pencils,
folders, crayons and on and on. All the usual things needed for a great school
year.
Came across this article and I think it is one everyone;
students, teacher, parents should read and think about. I was teased as a kid
because I was so skinny. Olive Oil, you know Popeye’s honey, was the name I was
called the most. It was a different time and I just ignored it or was not with
it enough to know it was a form of bullying. Anyway it is different in this day
and age. Everything is more complicated now. And it seems a lot of people, not
all, are either not caring enough or afraid to get involved. I am thinking
afraid of speaking up for fear of being the next target. Maybe all of our
schools should check out Finland’s way of dealing with it.
Finland is really good at stopping bullying. Here's how they're doing it.
Something to think about.
Take care,
Rose
