A teacher was teaching her class about bullying
and gave them the following exercise to preform.
She had the children take a piece of paper and told them to
crumple it up, stomp on it, and really mess it up but be careful
not to rip it.
Then she had them unfold the paper, smooth it out and look how
scarred and dirty it was. Then she 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 try to fix
it.
That is what happens when a child bully's another child.
They may say they are sorry but the scars are there forever. The
looks on the faces of the children in the classroom told her the
message hit home.
Not mine but I love it anyways.
