How to Help Schools Be Safer for Kids in Tough Situations GUEST: Aaron L. Smith

Transforming Relationship with Emotional Savvy

TOO MUCH BULLYING! TOO MANY TEEN SUICIDES!

This needs to stop, and we need to do whatever we can to stop bullying now, and intervene with bullying victims immediately.

Did you ever imagine that the internet would be so full of stories of bullying? And, then, did you think that the next thing would be too many teen suicides? Yes, it's a natural progression, but what a nasty one!

And, hey, parents! Are you teaching your children not to bully others?

Are you validating your child's self-worth at home, so they go out in the world with the self-esteem that allows them to interact in healthy ways?

Do you give your children your attention for who they are and not just for what they do?

That's your job!

Here's a few startling facts:

• Suicide is the third leading cause of death among young people
• Bully victims are between 2 to 9 times more likely to consider suicide than non-victims
• A study in Britain found that at least half of suicides among young people are related to bullying
• According to statistics reported by ABC News, nearly 30 percent of students are either bullies or victims of bullying
• In the US, ABC News reported that 160,000 kids stay home from school every day because of fear of bullying
