Bullying was once thought to be an annoying but inevitable rite of passage, but now parents and teachers understand that it can inflict lifelong emotional damage on its victims. Although no child is exempt from being bullied, children who are considered different are at higher risk for being victims. For kids with ADHD, bullying can affect them two ways. Their quirks and learning difficulties increase the possibility of being bullied, but current research shows that children with ADHD have the potential to become bullies themselves. Who becomes a bully? The stereotyped image of a bully is an overweight boy who torments younger, skinnier boys. However, bullies come in all shapes, sizes, and ...

His teacher has been wanting to set up opportunities for non-autistic students to spend time with Charlie’s class but all the middle school students at Charlie’s school are so tightly scheduled that it has not been easy. Just getting some time to talk about autism and disabilities to them is an operation in and of itself. In Massachusetts, “I Care” (which stands for Introducing Children to Acceptance through Reading and Education) is a program that (quoting from a description on The Jamie Fund website) seeks to “help explain why some classmates might be different than others.” The program was started by the mother an autistic daughter...

Unfortunately, for many kids, a big part of these social challenges is bullying. In fact, according to the American Academy of Child & Adolescent Psychiatry (AACAP): “Surveys indicate that as many as half of all children are bullied at some time during their school years, and at least 10% are bullied on a regular basis.” Bullying can have devastating consequences, including depression, anxiety, low self-esteem and thoughts of suicide. Potential Signs Here are some warning signs that your child might be a victim of bullying: - Withdraws socially - Feels isolated and sad - Exhibits mood swings - Threatens violence - Doesn’t want to go to school - Unexplained bruising - A drop in gr...

The opposite is also true ... when people prosper through peace they tend to prefer its doable tactics. Look at war and peace trends since last year’s Veteran’s Day.  War’s extended into recreation within violent games such as Jack Bauer.Peace was promoted through music when the New York Philharmonic reduced North Korea’s and America’s violent political rhetoric through musical intelligence.War lingered when good men and women found little support after violence literally rewired their brains.Peace continued to prosper people and business in Ireland in ways that inspired mental well-being.

Research has changed what it means to be clever. We live in a time when knowledge acceleration means more facts to race through more minds in less time.

Will it help? Hopefully new research such as nanotech simulation will lead to treatment of violence.
