One of my friends, ~monicalynnevallejo had a journal about this. While I haven't had the kind of experiences others have had in this department, I believe it is worth making a journal about. Hopefully, I won't be bothering anyone *huggle*

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
PLEASE READ


   A teacher in New York was teaching her class about bullying and gave them the following exercise to perform. She had the children take out a piece of paper and told them to crumple it up, stomp on it and really mess it up, not to rip it. Then she had them unfold the paper, smooth it out and look at how scarred and dirty it was. She then told them to tell it they're sorry. Now, even though they said they were sorry and tried to fix the paper, she pointed out all the scars they left behind. And that those scars will never go away no matter how hard they tried to fix it. That is what happens when a child bullies another child, they may say they're sorry, but the scars are there forever. The looks on the faces of the children in the classroom told her the message hit home. Copy and paste this if you are against bullying.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

One thing I think is somewhat interesting about this is how children are unable to attach to other children but can attach themselves to inanimate objects. This is probably because, for many years, children can be defined as sociopaths (as far as I'm aware this is true, no offense intended). From what I know, this makes them incapable of empathizing with other human beings, but capable of caring over inanimate things (say, a particular toy or stuffed animal) because that inanimate object becomes a facet of themselves. I can only hope that, assuming this is true, that this exercise will teach children to empathize with others as though they too were a facet of themselves. However, it's worth noting that they have terrible attention spans, so unless it's done repeatedly I doubt it will sink in ^^;


Ummm as for other business, there isn't much of it. For those of you watching this journal (yes that includes you Alice :XD: ) I have been only a little busy, watching movies with family, started cooking again, and running a few errands. Sorry for the absence S:
As for new uploads, well hrmmm... if anyone watching this cares to, tell me what you'd like to see me make more of ^_^ I'll answer with why I might or why I can't rofl xD
