You should look on the internet for other people/organizations who have started anti-bullying programs and/or gotten anti-bully guidelines implemented in schools systems in their community.

I heard the bully movie was great! There was a few schools in the news that was showing the movie as a school assembly. Awesome idea!

I don't think parents understand how serious bullying can be, and how many suicides are a direct result of it.

This is very true. Parents are so uninformed, or the schools and media make it seem as if suicide was not the reason. They sugar coat it. I think it's the schools way of protecting themselves in case of a lawsuit for something they may have failed to do to protect the victim. its really disturbing how many parents do not know what is going on. But the parent of the suicide victim always knows. There are many clues they may have not seen or thought was serious enough.

It starts with the parents. If they teach their kids not to bully ... bullying would be way down.

It seems lately people are starting to realize how bad the effects of bullying can be.
