In the U.S., an estimated 1.6 million students in grades six
through ten are bullied one or more times per week. As many as 150,000 victims cut classes
each day just to avoid it, and every now and then a student like Evan Ramsey takes matters
into his own hands. Convicted at 16 of killing his principal and another student, Evan
will not qualify for parole until he is 85 years old. In this program, Dr. James Shaw, a
former teacher and author of Jack and Jill: Why They Kill, explains how to confront and
counter bullying in the nation's schools. Candid interviews with bullied students
including Ramsey as well as with two reformed bulliesone male, one
femaleprovide a balanced peer perspective on school violence. Some students also
share their successes as part of anti-bullying and peer mediation programs in their
schools.
