What's going on...

[Rudy Troike]

Howdy,

  I agree with Resa that the message is more important that the biographical
accuracy, and people who want to focus on the latter are trying to subvert
the message. But it was hard to look at Jonah's face and not believe that
this was real. The tears certainly don't seem manufactured.

Hi, everyone. Thanks, Rolland, for sending this link along. I saw it yesterday,
and I read through some of the comments. That was where I found out that there
is quite a bit of controvery over whether the video is actually true. Some
postings indicate that Jonah Mowry lied. I did not continue to look into the
videos (due to time constraints) to see if the video was a hoax or not.

Whether the video is true or false, I still believe it's important for us to be
vigilant with regard to bullying. It has become apparent to me (through my own
experience with my son being bullied) that the bullying cessation programs in
our public schools are not working.
