Bench Notice

I look for articles on bullying all the time on the internet and keep my ear to the ground for current events on the topic. My hope is that I find human interest stories that have a happy ending. I typed in bullying in the news today and was shocked by the number of events that have gone on during the last month or so. Stories I am not even sure if everyone is aware of. What’s even more alarming is the number of suicides that were reported. I am including the link here, not to distress my readers but to make everyone aware that this problem is not going away. For every warm and fuzzy story that we read or hear about there are dozens of other stories about bullying events. This does not include the unreported events that are less headline grabbing.
