6. TRY THE FOLLOWING
EXERCISE...
A teacher in New York was teaching her class about bullying and gave them the
following exercise to perform. She had the children take a piece of paper and told
them to crumple it up, stamp on it and really mess it up but do not rip it. Then
she had them unfold the paper, smooth it out and look at how scarred and dirty
is 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 bully’s 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.
