Again and again we hear more horrible stories about bullying, cyberbullying, or any type of abuse. Can we say enough? We don't want anymore victims, whether it's children or adults (believe me, adults may experience that too). Let's stand up to bullying and make a better world. One voice can definitely make a difference if everybody thinks the same way.
There are some nonprofit organizations for people to unite, pledge, show their commitments to stand up against bullying. One of them is Love Our Children USA.
STOMP Out Bullying is an amazing program of Love Our Children USA that focuses on reducing and preventing bullying, cyberbullying and other digital abuse, decreasing school absenteeism and truancy, educating against homophobia, racism and hatred and deterring violence in schools, playgrounds, online and in communities across the country.
October 3rd – 9th is National Bullying Prevention Awareness Week and October 4th is the Second Annual BLUE SHIRT DAY.
Since 1999, Love Our Children USA has broken ground in preventing violence against children and eliminating behaviors that keep them from reaching their full potential. It teaches effective parenting solutions and fosters kid success by creating valuable programs that empower positive changes in parenting and family attitudes, bullying and cyberbullying prevention, Internet safety and school violence prevention through public education.
