I am promoting random acts of kindness as an anti-bullying measure. Random acts of kindness begin in the home. Please make an effort to instill the concept of random acts of kindness in your children before school starts. Teach by example. The schools and care centers can take kindness further to support your efforts. The transition from child-centered to "others-centered" brings balance to giving and receiving. Children need help in making this transition. This, too, starts in the home; and it is the seedling that will grow into compassion for others, which is the underlying source of community service.
My two children's books, Roscoe Is a RAKster and Roscoe the RAKster Is Also a PAKster, are now available. Click on Buy Books.
