I lived thru what these kids lived thru, and so did my oldest son. I can write you a book on the subject from the victim's perspective. And I have zero sympathy for the attackers. It haunts your entire life forever afterwards. There is no excuse to allow it at any level, at any time. But we have set up a horribly conflicted system in this country to deal with bullying, and how adults DO deal with it in schools is completely random and uncoordinated, and often self-contradictory. I had better stop soon of I'll crash the servers here with all I COULD write about this topic.

Ignorant and dismissive statements like: "Boys will be boys", taken as policy and excuse, are the heart of the problem. And it's a problem felt by girls as well.

If I won the big lotto, one of my first purchases would be to send a DVD of this movie to every school district, school board, PTA, Superintendant, principal, counselor, and teacher. Until then, all I can do is urge all of them to watch this film and feel what it is, to be that one victim, and to have no hope, nobody to save you.
