Reply #15: I'm seeing anti-bullying campaigns everywhere now! [View All]

I couldn't be happier about it.
I was an otherwise popular kid who had to endure quite a bit of bullying due to being over-weight, kind of book-ish and sensitive despite being extroverted and a real socializer.
I constantly saw both worlds - and never knew when it would suddenly flip from one to the other.
(I won't describe what was done and said to me, it's just ugly.)

Many bullied kids never have the good side of my school days. They are just mercilessly harangued - I used to befriend these kids and just experiencing being befriended seemed to spin them around 180 degrees!

It works. Let's build an "army" of befrienders out there in the schools. One kid at a time.
