Character Forum / October: Anti-bullying Month

I posted this video early this week on Faceook but I thought it was worth reposting here as well.
 
 
Consider this: Are bullies always children / teens? Are those bullied always children / teens? It would appear from the video that the email sent to this Adult came from another adult. Then again, could it have been a teenager?  Is a snickering group of teenagers, laughing or talking about an obese teacher or other adult, any less hurtful than it is if directed towards another teen? Does hiding behind a cloak of "concern," as the writer did make it better?
 
Bullies come in all forms and all ages and those who live the Core Values of C.A.P. will stop bullies when they hear them.  
 
A Character Forum will be held this Monday because we missed one in September. Lets come prepared to discuss the many forms that bullying can take and what we can do about it.
