 | It's NOT Just Joking Around: Jodee Blanco
Excerpt from Jodee Blanco's home page: "Welcome to our Web site - yes, yours and mine. Because chances
are, if you've landed here, you and I share something important
in common. Both of us have been deeply affected by school bullying
and peer abuse. Maybe you're a teen who's lonely and sad because
no matter how hard you try to fit in at school, your classmates
laugh at you behind your back and constantly pick on you. Maybe
you're the bully, or even the bystander, the person who sees
another student being hurt and humiliated but who does nothing
to help. Perhaps you're a parent who can't stand one more day
of watching your child suffer at the hands of his peers simply
for being different. You might even be the mom or dad of a bully,
and at your wit's end over what to do about it. Or, maybe you're
an educator or counselor, frustrated by the pain you witness,
yet feeling powerless to stop it."
