What if.
I received this video in my email this morning. Which has been posted on Facebook. It made me cry. I cried for the boy in the video. As a mom, I cried for my kids. What if this was my child. Then another thought hit me. What if it was my kid making this boy feel this way.
This Bullying Problem is topic of the national conversation. Bullying seems so prevalent these days. The thing is, kids now have so many mediums with which to bully. Texting. Facebook. A child can be bullied 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. But why are kids wanting to bully someone constantly? Why are kids being so hateful and mean?
Well, I think we should all take a deep breath, step back and point the finger at ourselves. Go ahead. Do it. Point that finger at yourself. Look how the grown-ups behave in the media, in Congress, on the internet and even in our churches. Is it any wonder our kids act the way they do?
