As a person who has not only experienced on-going bullying first-hand as a child, but also had to deal with the bullying of my own children, I am well aware of the short and long-term damage done by physical, relational, verbal and sexual violence. In other words, this show is personal, and therefore very much more than an "intellectual exercise...."
Sticks & Stones...the dynamics of bullying shows are available for Grades 9-12, throughout the Golden Horseshoe area.
