I am blazing angry because this just happened to me.  I was 31 minutes into my 45 minute workout and thinking: "Wow, this is going to be the best (longest) workout I've been able to squeeze in to my day in over 3 months!"  All of a sudden, the channel of the TV I was intently viewing changed!  My reaction was immediate because I had no headphones and was struggling to keep up with the dialogue running across the bottom of the screen.  I looked over to my left and there he was, the jerk who changed my channel even before he ever got to the elyptical machine.   Read more >

Everyday this year, the media have reported one study finding after another.  Today there were several announced.  One that caught my ear had to do with our overly connected kids.  The study concluded that the more children are plugged in to their ipods, cell phones, texting, computers, Facebook, email, video games, and TV, the lower their grades.  Hello!!!  Money spent on silly studies such as this would be much better spent on saving lives in Haiti.  Give me a break!  Read more >

For some reason, in this country risk of serious injury or death isn't enough to get people to stop acting irresponsilbly.  A national campaign has been launched called Focus Driven.  It was started by moms who have lost children and even parents thanks to drivers who were distracted by talking on their cell phones or, worse, texting!  The National Safety Commission reports that today 28% of car accidents are due to "illegal" cell phone usage.  Read more >

The images of Haiti are heart wrenching to see.  We will be seeing them for a longtime to come as Haiti lifts herself out of the rubble.  On my way home from the gym today, I passed by an 8 year old girl in my neighborhood riding her scooter (helmet on thank goodness!); the $160 Uggs that covered 1/3 of her small frame were hard to miss.  It made me reflect on how much we have and take for granted.  Read more >

About Me: 
I'm a 45 year old mom of 2 young teens and an Australian Shepherd.  When my youngest daughter was chronically bullied at her elementary school, my whole world turned up-side down along with hers. I created MomsAgainstBullying in the hope that parents of bully victims, parents of bullies, parents of bystanders, school teachers, principals, and law enforcement will share their stories, insights, and tips to guide all of us adults in taking effective action to stop this childhood epidemic.  1 in 4 children are bullied every single day at school!  We parents have got to act now and stop the bullying in our schools.  Our kids are counting on us.
