A new documentary film, “BULLY,” follows several students to show how bullying happens in schools—and how educators often struggle to put a stop to it. A safe and supportive school climate can be one of the best tools in preventing bullying. Whether it’s the classroom, the cafeteria, the library, the restrooms, on the bus, or on the playground, children need to feel safe—or they can’t focus on learning. Working together, everyone at school can help create a climate where bullying is not acceptable.

Harassment is a problem on social media, in texting and face to face. Witnesses can’t be bystanders. Bullying, harassment, racist hate speech, incivility and anger all seem to be at high tide now in America. That tide has grown to a tsunami, thanks to social media sites such as the phenomenally popular Facebook and YouTube and the ubiquity of devices such as smartphones that make posting comments and photos a snap, even for elementary school kids.

"It's really important that parents understand how the Internet works and how young people are using it. There's no point to having a conversation with your child about how they use social networking sites if you have no idea what Facebook, MSN or instant messenger is. It's not about taking over their world or spying on them. It's about understanding and appreciating it."
