Contempt comes with:
 1.  A sense of entitlement - the privilege and right to control, dominate, subjugate, and otherwise abuse another human being.
2.  An intolerance toward differences - different equals inferior and thus not worthy of respect.
3. A liberty to exclude - to bar, isolate, and segregate a person deemed not worthy of respect or care.]]> 2017-02-05 18:03:20 UTC https://padlet.com/chelleyhopson/bullies/wish/151676082 chelleyhopson https://padlet.com/chelleyhopson/bullies/wish/151678752 2017-02-05 18:40:53 UTC https://padlet.com/chelleyhopson/bullies/wish/151678752 chelleyhopson https://padlet.com/chelleyhopson/bullies/wish/151679705 by Steve Seskin and Allen Shamblin

Don't laugh at me, don't call me names,
Don't take your pleasure from my pain.
I'm a little boy with glasses
The one they call a geek,
A little girl who never smiles
'Cause I have braces on my  teeth
And I know how it feels to cry myself to sleep
I'm that kid on every playground
Who's always chosen last
A single teenage mother
Tryin' to overcome my past
You don't have to be my friend
But is it too much to ask: Don't laugh at me
Don't call me names
Don't get your pleasure from my pain...
Don't laugh at me I'm fat, I'm thin, I'm short, I'm tall
I'm deaf, I'm blind, hey aren't we all.]]> 2017-02-05 18:54:25 UTC https://padlet.com/chelleyhopson/bullies/wish/151679705 chelleyhopson https://padlet.com/chelleyhopson/bullies/wish/151685447 CNN]]> 2017-02-05 20:17:05 UTC https://padlet.com/chelleyhopson/bullies/wish/151685447 chelleyhopson https://padlet.com/chelleyhopson/bullies/wish/151692241 Bullying is wide-spread and if communities fail to prevent it, our children's health, mental health and academic success may be compromised.
b) |  | Children who are at greatest risk of bullying include those who have learning disabilities, autism, special health care needs, weight problems, and those who are lesbian, gay, bisexual, or transgender, are questioning their sexual orientation, or do not conform to gender stereotypes.
c) |  | Although there are a variety of federal and state laws related to bullying, bullying often goes unreported and, therefore, unaddressed.]]> 2017-02-05 22:04:17 UTC https://padlet.com/chelleyhopson/bullies/wish/151692241 chelleyhopson https://padlet.com/chelleyhopson/bullies/wish/151704831 2017-02-06 01:07:43 UTC https://padlet.com/chelleyhopson/bullies/wish/151704831 chelleyhopson https://padlet.com/chelleyhopson/bullies/wish/151707035 2017-02-06 01:40:48 UTC https://padlet.com/chelleyhopson/bullies/wish/151707035 chelleyhopson https://padlet.com/chelleyhopson/bullies/wish/151707113 Bullying is not an easy concept, even for IB students, as evidenced by this excerpt:]]> 2017-02-06 01:41:44 UTC https://padlet.com/chelleyhopson/bullies/wish/151707113 chelleyhopson https://padlet.com/chelleyhopson/bullies/wish/151709258 It is the "backbone" family that is able to raise the type of child who can rebuff the bully,.

"Wow, man, you poured that on thick; I don't need this; I'm gone."

At home your children need the opportunity to develop their abilities to listen, exchange ideas, and work with others toward a common goal.  The need to be able to control their own behavior and anticipate the conquences of words they speak and actions they take. 

Kids bring to school the attitudes and behaviors they learned at home.]]> 2017-02-15 18:19:38 UTC https://padlet.com/chelleyhopson/bullies/wish/154110617
