Thank you. It is our job to listen and I am afraid that is where society failed Jamey. He had a story to tell, but we listened too late. How can we help schools change this?Dana S.

They are the people you want to surround yourself with and reach out to. The people who are different help you learn, inspire you to grow, and open up a world of possibilities you never knew existed." <br /><br />I am touched and inspired by your words. I so want my own children to learn this message.<br /><br />Whenever I read about bullying I am always left with a question about schools. Do we, in creating conformity, breed these bullying environments? I hope not, but I do worry. Each day I try to teach my students that each person has a story and it's our job to listen. <br /><br />Thank you for sharing,<br /><br />#youmatterUnknownhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06014605489765736746noreply@blogger.com
