I remember being in middle school (a REALLY long time ago) and bullying happened (never to me) but I do have concious memories of it happening around me. Yet I don’t remember anyone doing anything big to stop it. Of course I remember teachers preaching the “Prevent Bullying” speech (typically at the beginning of the year). But nothing like today -where it is everywhere. Where its THE hot topic in the news. But I do agree that bullying has become an issue and not only in schools and workplaces but in private lives too. It happens to celebrities and its called stalking. It happens to children on the playground and its called bullying. It happens to teens and its called drama. It happens and it has many names.

So what is answer. . . Kindness – it is the exact opposite of bullying. In fact, it is also the ultimate form of Self-Defense. It is really hard to be mean to someone that is always nice to you.
Remember to pay it forward. Always. Good luck everyone!
