How did you get into this organization?
I start appearance against bullying because one of my twins was brutally attacked by a bully in 2012. She was kicked for a total of 17 minutes and I promised that I would be a support to others so they wouldn’t feel left alone in situations such as this. Bullying wasn’t really talked about Back in 2012 so I want to make sure I became a resource to those that need to help to be proactive and reactive if need be. Such as their rights laws and things of that nature.
I started parents against bullying in 2013 because of this matter.
Why do you do what you do?
My heart was broken as a Mother going through the attack of my daughter back in 2012. So I wanted to make sure I was able to help other so they wouldn’t feel alone . Also to educate people on this topic as well.
Why are you passionate about this?
I am passionate about this is because my daughter survived this and I want to make sure that no one else’s daughter or son has to go through this without some support.
What are your goals?
Our goals are to be able to have a one stop shop to have resources for whatever you may need in order to build self-esteem of our youth and children around the world so they can stand up and speak up and speak out against bullying daily. And prayerfully to hopefully end Bullying one day.
