Join Dave and Bill with Jennie Withers to talk about CyberBullying & playground Bullying and the effects on our children daily... Half of U.S. high schoolers say they have bullied or teased someone at least once in the past year.
ABOUT THE AUTHOR: Jennie Withers is a graduate of Boise State University, Boise, Idaho, and currently teaches Technical Reading and Writing and Creative Writing at the high school level. She has published articles in TWIST magazine and Boy’s Life magazine and contributed to Treasure Valley Teen magazine. She lives in Meridian, Idaho, with her husband and two daughters.
ABOUT THE BOOK: Because of the recent alarming increase of tragic suicides among youths, the direct result of repeated harassment and taunting of school children, the United States Department of Education (DOE) released a nationwide appeal to Boards of Education addressing the growing harmful issue in our schools: bullying. Many states have now signed the “Anti-Bullying Bill of Rights” to help ensure the physical and emotional well-being of today’s youth. Approximately 160,000 students in America and more worldwide avoid school each day because of the fear of bullying and 60 to 80 percent of schoolchildren face harassment intimidation.
