I am the School Conflict Resolution Examiner for Examiner.com. I taught conflict resolution to middle school students for five years (1998 to 2003) until a budget-cut ended the program. I post free stories, role-plays, articles, and lesson plans on bullying and conflict resolution at the following link: http://www.examiner.com/x-16041-School-Conflict-Resolution-Examiner. Perhaps some of these articles and stories might help some of your readers. They are all FREE. Best wishes to you and your readers. Debbie Dunn Hi from Debbie Dunn.

My parents even bully me with names, and threats and violence. Im not going to lie , i really dont like talking about any of this. Its very hard for me. This one girl in my buisness law class even bullies me. She stole my agenda so now I cant even use the bathroom, so everyday in class i ask my teachers if i can go to the bathroom and they all say the same thing , NO!!. Im just so scared that one day im going to have an acident and p in my pants because of Bourtney Joole. She even hits me, and puts her feet in my face. I have also learned that sometimes you just got to close your eyes and go to a happy place but it doesnt always work, can someone please help me. S.O.S. In grade school, I was beaten up constintly.

My teachers; rather than stop it saw the chance to make “collectivist” lessons out of the situation and often participated in the daily intimidation and humiliation. This lasted through High School with the added features of “bullies” stealing and vandalizing my personal stuff. Eventually I became a very violent and dangerous kid. Then the same types of people who had beset me in the past acted so very innocent and began harass me using the system (school, legal; et al…). The neighborhood kids (out of school) were ambivalent toward my plight; and as I grew more desperate for help they too turned on me. At home; an overwrought and unstable parent blamed me for most of life’s woes and also beat / psychologically abused me. The one remaining sibling had no patience for me and was just trying to survive herself; while the older siblings had escaped to their own lives. I suffered badly and often planned suicide [even tried it once in fifth grade]. I abused inhalants and anything else I could get my hands on. Eventually I lied about my troubled past and as a young man got into the USAF. They helped me slowly set myself aright and I served for nine years. Now as a middle aged man; I have found Messianic Judaism and have a wonderful wife and children. The ONLY defense against bullies is parents and siblings who are willing to defend you; even if that means jail time. Arm yourselves in whatever way you can and stick by your children and siblings, everything else somebody will tell you are crap!

It is about minority bullying within the gay community. It is light hearted as that is how I approach subjects, but hopefully you'll find it interesting. I think what you are doing is a good thing and I look forward to hearing more about it. I have included one paragraph from the blog below. 'I had a friend who was a serial bully. She was devious and manipulative and would intentionally seek the emotionally needy to work her magic on. She had a split personality that fooled even the most intelligent. Her technique was to make you a nice home-cooked meal one night then sleep with your date the next. When being the brunt of her jokes affected my life and self esteem I walked away. Yes, she did what all child bullies do, she spread rumours and turned friends against me. She still has her pack, they sit in bars looking intimidating and bitching about those they are jealous of..... hi, I have just posted a Blog today called ‘Who let the dogs out’.
