Introduction

I was bullied when I was younger, however back then it wasn't broadcast over the social media that we have now.  Luckily I had a person stand up for me, a member of the football team.  If only we had more of those type of heroes out there now.  Well look here....I guess we do!!!   http://www.mysanantonio.com/news/education/article/Football-players-step-up-as-a-defense-against-3472442.php 

The resources that are in your area vary.  I will  attempt to highlight resources as I find them.  I hope this helps those out there that are suffering from this epidemic.  Here is a generic site that we'll start with:  http://kidshealth.org/kid/feeling/school/poll_bullying.html#

Remember if you are a parent, bullying can be deadly.  If you are the one being bullied, hang in there.  There is help.  There are people who care.  I am one of many people who do.   See the following links of athletes: Steve Nash stands up against Bullies http://sports.espn.go.com/espn/commentary/news/story?id=5661740
