Bullying: A Little Less Talk, A Little More Action…and Money

The Phoebe Prince story has the country now (correctly) focused on bullying. There are many great experts doing great work in this field. So why does it feel like so many schools, parents and kids are clueless when it comes to how to handle this devastating issue?

Here’s a thought.

Currently, the efforts, although worthy, are sporadic and not well funded to say the least.

So here’s a chance to give your opinion. Where should the money come from and how should it be spent?
