Bullying in schools will never stop until the rcaehihy system, grades and the corporate modeled social system in schools change. Grading kids, from A-F, causes bullying. It oppresses kids. The principal is the CEO of the school, the teachers are the bosses, and you have to address them as Mr, and Mrs. while the kids privacy is lost, and teachers do not have the respect for children back. Teachers call kids by their first names. Anytime you have an oppressed group, children in school, they will be worse to each other than the people oppressing them. The slaves did the same thing, they were worse with each other than they were with their masters, their oppressors. When you don't have the power to rise up against your oppressors, you take it out on your peers. We call it bullying.I think psychologists have failed children by not pointing this out and saying school is unhealthy for children.
So amazing boy !
I wish to have people like Taylor in my country (Poland). Here we haven`t got adult people who will be brave like he so watching him is really big surprise. In Poland we are still something strange and we haven`t got rights. Too many blinds people live here. Our bigest wish is to live openly in legal relations.
Of cors I will sign all petition which you give on your website. (if i can like a polish)
Greetings from Poland
He is extremely well spoken and such an inspiration, it's a wonderful thing to have him here in this world. :)
Hi Ellen! I am 15 and I love you show and I love what you do from day to day. You are a true hero and stand up for people who need you. I know so many people who look up to you including me. Don't change anything about you, you are perfect and help so many people even if you don't realize it. All my friends and I look forward to watching you and I know even though some of them are having a really hard time with bullies that person has you to look up to. So thank you for that

Ellen please see what my 11 yr old daughter is doing for her town and beyond. She is the face and voice of so many!
Hey Ellen,
I'm so glad you are against bulling it means heaps to me as i'm 16 and openly lesbian and I came out 3 months ago. Walking home from school I was jumped(attacked). I was pushed to the ground and repeatedly kicked and punched. When I come home from school I can't wait for your show to start you inspire me and I love you and your show so much. I was scared to tell my friends but I knew I was Lesbian for 3 years before I told anyone and when I did come out all my friends supported me which I found really overwhelming they were there when I told my parents. But I was so upset and scared to tell anyone of the bulling to I repeatedly cut myself and had other nasty thoughts too. But I knew that if I had you to watch everyday I would be okay. So thank you so very much Ellen xx
Ellen I just want to say that it is great what you are doing for the bully victims today I am 15 now and a very tall girl so people have stopped bulling me now but I wish when I was younger there was more people like you helping bullying victims like me through the tough times but thank you from all over the world the message is staring to hit home.
Hey Ellen. I am SO glad that you are taking a stand against bullying. I am 13 and I have been bullied since I was in 2nd grade. Every day I would get comments about my weight. At fist, it really didnt bother me but then the comments became more and more frequent. I started to believe it and I had very low self-estem and confidence. I would sit by myself everyday and no one talked to me. The only time I thought I had gotten a friend, she backstabbed me. It was so bad, there were a couple times that I thought about killing myself. But, I am living proof that it gets better. The worst year for me was when I was 5th grade. The year after that, I wasn't bullied as much. I am now in 8th grade and I have 4 or more best friends. Every now and then someone will say something and it still bothers me, a lot. But, I try to nto show it. I also try to not not bully others because I dont want anyone to go throught what I did.
This bully crap has been going on since I was a kid & I am 52. I had my nose broke walking home from swimming. My 29 yr old daughter was also bullied & the girls wrote graffi on the school. My husband had to paint over it & the principal did nothing. It got so bad from the daily fights in the 10th grade, we had to change schools & put her in a different school where she did graduate early. The schools need stricter rules, & then enforce them. Back then we could never get any help from the school. I hope that is not what would happen now.
this kid is very brave to do all of that when he is 14 i give him alot of credit and i know exactly what he is going though the sad thing is that im 20 and in college and i still am getting bullied and it is terrible but thi s kid is very inspireing to hear his story i have been dealing with this since i was in highschool so i wish him the best of lucK
Path of Will is a film about what tenacity+determination may bring, success. Stop the bullying is the prevailing message and one I share with my film, that I hope all will be inspired to follow their own, "Path of Will." We each have it in us to make a difference by saving a life and even our own, by following the principle of diligence and discipline, to ultimately achieve what one deserves.
Stand up to bullying.
