According to this UK website, it is not just kids that are being bullied...but teachers as well...

I wish that we lived in a more perfect world. However, the world that we live in has some flaws. Some of these flaws are attributed by the people around us and sometimes, they are the people that we grow to love and respect - teachers.

My child wants to play a sport, what should he or she begin with?

Multicultural Book of the Week

During World War II, one group of Americans were sent to prison for an act that many would find incomprehensible today: the act of existing. It was through the actions of individuals living over 2000 miles away that caused many Japanese-Americans to be placed into internment camps during World War II.

The Journey is a story of a mural that the main character painted that showed the deeply rooted racism that her relatives and other fellow Japanese Americans experienced while in U.S. concentration camps.
