It urges us to become change agents and empower children to transform their pain, rage, and revenge to empathy, kindness, and healing.

Anti-bullying legislation and school policies are essential supports, but we must change the hearts, attitudes, and behavior of students. President Obama said it well, “Bullying is not normal and it is not inevitable.” The implication of that statement is daunting but not impossible. Banishing Bullying Behavior will inspire you to prevent peer abuse and intervene effectively when necessary.
