First Blog Post - Mission Statement
Hello and welcome to my first post of my first blog!
I'm glad you came by my blog.
I hope that this space in the internet will be used as YOUR tool to help guide those of you who have been bullied for whatever reason. This will be a place where you can find help - a place that gives you tools to empower YOU - the victim of bullying. For, YOU are the one who can be the one to stop your tormentor/tormentors.
I plan for this blog to heighten awareness of bullying, provide a library of knowledge on how to avoid bullying, a resource for where to go if you're being bullied, a place to locate good healthy advice near wherever you are to speak with people who can help you, a place to rant and vent about your bullies, and a place to help you develop your plan of action to safely navigate your way to keep bullies away.
If you're feeling yourself in a sense of hopelessness, struggling to find something/anything that will give YOU that bit of knowledge, shred of courage, moment of clarity and strength to make it through another day dealing with bullying, then it is my sincere desire to make this blog at least one place to find it.
If you're being bullied in grade school, in high-school, in college, in the workplace, in the homespace, or if you're being picked on for simply being "different"...then, I want to know your story.
If you USED to be a bully and have advice for others on how to keep from being a bullying target - I want to hear from you too.

I remember being bullied as a child. Growing up very poor we were always good targets for the name calling and being made fun of . Kids being kids , right . But this always will end in it turning into a physical confrontation . I remember the ones who were my tormentors and I am 50 years old !!! We need to teach our kids it's ok to say no sometimes and to stand up for their friends and themselves . And parents stand behind your children and their right to defend themselves against bullying. I know for myself that the bullying never stopped until I stood up for myself and said enough is enough. And as a parent of a child who has been a target of bullies I think I understand. Bullies are cowards , yes they are!!!!! We all need to feel good about ourselves And bullying takes that away. I teach my children to have respect for other people and for themselves . Martial arts has been a great outlet for myself and my children. I bet you don't see true martial artist being bullies. Kids hang in there is does get better!!!!! Any one who would like to talk about your bullying problems please call 6786175838 thanks brad for starting this!!!!!!!!!!
