Today I spent about 4 hours working on the press release and sending it out to every media entity I could. We are on a bunch of websites, I sent it to the newspapers nearby, and to some radio stations too. I'm really happy to teach this one because I feel like if kids are taught the skills necessary and words to say in a bully encounter, they will be stronger people. They will be able to have more courage at school to stand up for themselves, raise their hand when a teacher asks a question, and tons of other things.
My goal is to have as many people attend the seminar as possible, but it's really challenging. A lot of people may not have a current bully issue but having these skills will help kids deal with it if it ever does. For most of us, bullying happens at one time or another in our lives. Sometimes it happens when you're really young, a teen, or even an adult.
Anyone who's coming to the seminar, make sure you invite your friends or bring one of your friend's children with you. Our limit is 50 kids so we need to get RSVPs quick! We'll have some pics and updates for it as soon as we're done on Saturday afternoon!
