This show is in memory of Tyler Clementi, Asher Brown, Seth Walsh, Justin Aaberg, Raymond Chase, Billy Lucas and the many who suffer in silence. Our guest co-hosts are Dr. Laurie, Claire, Cami and Mason. Bullies are common among school age children. Bullying can be either physical or verbal, and can range from mild teasing to pushing and hitting. The results are varied and the increase in teen suicide is alarming. What are parents, teachers and the communities instilling in our children and what should we watching out for? We have invited teachers, parents and students to this discussion as the recent tragic rise in suicide calls for immediate action... We need you to add to this topic so call in at 347-996-3472 On October 20th, 2010, we will wear purple in honor of the 6 gay boys who committed suicide in recent weeks/months due to homophobic abuse in their homes and at their schools. Tell your friends, family, co-workers, neighbors and schools. RIP Tyler Clementi, Asher Brown, Seth Walsh, Justin Aaberg, Raymond Chase, Billy Lucas. Don't let their deaths be for nothing. Let it mean something to change this country for once.
