Entourage: Part four

Can you relate?

30katrina

Katrina Simpkins knows what it is like to be bullied and picked on. Third grade was not fun for this little girl who felt as though she did not fit in with the other students. One kind of conflict that can affect adults at work and kids at school or in their neighborhood is a conflict with bullies. Can you relate to Katrina or the circumstances in the article? Are their bullies in your class or neighborhood? Do you find boys or girls are doing more of the bullying?  Have you ever bullied anyone or been bullied yourself? How does your school handle bullies? Share your thoughts with other students.
