There are lots of naughty bully's in this world ... many from my era have their marks forever.<br /><br />But may I say this, just pray for those from our pasts that have hurt so many terribly ... it is not a matter of setting things right, it is correcting ones actions & words & changing within ones self. I know some gals on the internet that have caused great pain & they just flip right on not giving a tinker's ... yet they criticize those from their own pasts. They should hve learned from their own life experiences. Do not do as has been done unto you.<br /><br />Great piece, Ann. We see so much of this in this day & age ... truly heart breaking.<br /><br />Hope you had a fabulous Mother's Day, sweetie.<br /><br />Hugs & love, MarydonAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05697196986038110683noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8965293212962953575.post-70308446812836507002011-05-09T04:43:30.593-06:002011-05-09T04:43:30.593-06:00I remember two girls in my class who picked on and...I remember two girls in my class who picked on and bullied people. Both of them passed away in recent years (much younger than the average life expectancy). Although neither of them finished high school, I wonder what their adult lives were like - if they had any true friends, if they went through life still bullying others.<br /><br />Words can hurt and damage and once said cannot be taken back. Even if the offender apologies, it still leaves a scar.<br /><br />Thanks for bringing an important message.<br /><br />I hope you had a happy Mother's day.Joan Hallhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16430939897829160498noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8965293212962953575.post-91259332390357608542011-05-08T19:35:23.372-06:002011-05-08T19:35:23.372-06:00It saddens my heart when I read about kids that ha...It saddens my heart when I read about kids that have been bullied.

Bullying is even a bigger problem these days because of the ease of doing it through social media. All children need the love and supoort of parents and teachers to help them defend themselves and their self esteem against this type of abuse.<br /><br />On a happier note I hope you had a very Happy Mother's Day!

I see young teens in my practice who are devasted by the cruel treatment of their peers. Thank the Lord for people like Taylor Swift who speak out in song about this. Great post.

Bullying is cruel..when I worked for that year at the Jr. Hi. library we used to have several kids who would spend their lunchtime in the library..it was their SAFE place, I am sure..I was happy to give them some shelter, kids can be really cruel to others and even when we were young there were bullies..<br /><br />Have a wonderful mother's day!<br /><br />hugs xo<br />BarbDogmom Divahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00200083614598683445noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8965293212962953575.post-78317788299717093972011-05-07T10:47:37.504-06:002011-05-07T10:47:37.504-06:00When I was little I was bullied by a big ol' g...When I was little I was bullied by a big ol' girl by the name of J. She was scary and loud and picked on everyone around her. She was constantly getting into trouble and at 12 she looked 18. I looked like I was 8...<br /><br />Anyway...I saw her at my HS's 20th Reunion. She was SHOCKED that no one would talk to her... Her comment was "We were JUST KIDS!" <br /><br />"JUST KIDS?"<br /><br />You've gotta be kidding me. She was the reason I faked being sick at least a half a dozen times...<br /><br />Old wounds die slow. I see her online a lot and although I'm sure she has some regrets (at least I hope she does)and possibly has 'changed', unless she sets things right with those of us in her past everything she touches in her future is going to fail.<br /><br />Life is like that!<br /><br />GREAT POST!

I am sure lots of girls do and I hope they listen to this song. Bullying seems to have become so cruel and relentless with children now. I think it begins at home and parents need to parent their children. Sad to say, that is lacking in most homes today. But off my soapbox..Happy Mother's Day to you. I think your husband and children are blessed to have you as wife and mother.Maryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16727778262833890821noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8965293212962953575.post-80810237673976046702011-05-07T10:12:27.829-06:002011-05-07T10:12:27.829-06:00First off....I grew UP in Colorado...in the foothi...First off....I grew UP in Colorado...in the foothills just north of Denver.
