Why bullying still exists.

Many of us, especially those trapped in poverty or have children with disabilities or special educational needs, have experienced bullying in our lives, this is to explain why bullying won't stop until the government are held accountable and dramatic changes are made.

The economy needs poverty and inequality to gain capital, if the government and corporations lower the conscience of the mainstream follower they successfully dehumanise the vulnerable areas that need funding and can then cut services and budgets without anyone caring about the consequences, schools, disabilities, poverty and benefit claimants all get trashed in the name of capitalism.

So this is why children are indoctrinated to despise or ridicule those more vulnerable than themselves, so the higher up in society can easily remove the rights of the people they should be protecting. 

A child with trousers too short and frayed will be pointed at and mocked, even violently assaulted, rather than aided and protected as they should be. The parents are taught that if a child's mother or father is claiming, then they are living off the backs of hard working middle class citizens, thus gives personal reason to bully and dislike the person who they see as a reason to why they also are facing austerity.

So when the government cuts the benefits that child's parents receive it's seen as a success rather than the true inequality and breach of human rights it is.  

The child from the lesser impoverished family will learn, like most children, to judge the very same people their parents do, this creates a generation of hate and disregard that lasts and grows stronger. 

Millions of families across the UK are struggling with the cost of school and thousands of children are being bullied and embarrassed as a result.

Poverty determines your child's education.

Wrong but true, also the endless spiral the government has trapped us in! Forever Poor and forever disadvantaged for generations!

This also happens to children with special educational needs or disabilities. 

Weaker vulnerable people should be helped and protected. Bullies prey on weaker targets because it hides their own fears and weaknesses - makes them appear powerful.

The survival of the fittest and the constant pressure of being the best within education tends to eliminate many children from the competition life has become.

Bullies are functioning contrary to everything noble and high in a human being, and we should all aspire to operate on this earth, as the noblest and fairest of beings. To be noble is to seek to serve and not rule, to help not hinder, to love not hate. Deep within us, we all know that's true, but many have forgotten this. The coarseness of human society and its shallow values serve to obscure this.

It is an intentional act on behalf of the leaders and moneymakers of society to tread on those that draw in less profit, and whom they should be protecting.

"Bullying is the repetitive, intentional hurting of one person or group by another person or group, where the relationship involves an imbalance of power.

It leads to an outcome which is always painful and/or distresses."

Anti-Bullying Alliance (ABA)

Bullying can happen to any child, but children with special educational needs or a disability (SEND) are more likely to be bullied.

Just for the record, this is just the start of what is to become a more and more fascist Britain, where wealth and health determine how long you live and how well educated you become.

The poor and vulnerable will keep getting poorer, and the rich will keep getting wealthier.

School and suicide in the UK.

Some who end their lives or attempt suicide might be trying to escape feelings of rejection, hurt, or loss. Others might feel angry, ashamed, or guilty about something. Some people may be worried about disappointing friends or family members. And some may feel unwanted, unloved, victimized, or like they're a burden to others.

School can bring on many of those feelings and we are about to enter an even more dangerous territory in the UK. 

In February 2014, education minister Elizabeth Truss lead a "fact-finding mission" to Shanghai to learn the secrets of China's success. With plans to adjust the UK's education policy accordingly. 

Yet Chinese parents and educators see their own system as corrupt, dehumanising, pressurised and unfair. In fact, many are looking to the west for answers.

http://www.theguardian.com/world/2014/feb/22/china-education-exams-parents-rebel

China has seen a rise in child suicide and considering their lives literally revolve around school and learning, it would be hard to find the Education system not guilty for this.

http://m.theweek.com/article/index/252199/the-rise-of-youth-suicide-in-china

When we look at the UK, and the way the Government wants to find extreme ways to bring the children of the UK to the top of the international educator scoreboards, we need to question if this is healthy or safe. 

I believe not. 

We are already seeing a rise in teen suicide, as the educators tighten the belt around students, teachers and parents. 

In 2010 teen suicide was low in the UK.

Figures from the Office of National Statistics show that in the 15-19 age group, six people per 100,000 in Britain killed themselves in 2008. In relative terms, the youth suicide statistics for Britain are low – fifth from the bottom in a table of 30.

http://www.telegraph.co.uk/health/7727092/Teenage-suicide-a-web-of-despair.html

The education system was not to standard according to the Government, although our children seemed happier and less likely to harm themselves, this changed rapidly, alongside the changes to the education act 2011 that received royal assent. 

https://www.gov.uk/government/news/education-bill-receives-royal-assent

We then saw a sudden rise in teen suicide, our children seemed to be happier less and less. 

The number of people taking their own life in the UK rose "significantly" in 2011, latest figures from the Office for National Statistics have shown.

 

http://m.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-21141815

How has it come to the point that we have allowed the monsters who roam Westminster, to decide how happy our children are?.

When is it going to be enough?.

There are many ways to make sure our children are educated and still happy, Finland has consistently ranked high in the PISA study, which compares national educational systems internationally, although in the recent years Finland has been displaced from the very top. 

 http://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Education_in_Finland

What we need to ask ourselves is, should the government be held accountable for the lack of human rights in their efforts to storm to the top of the stats board within education? Are the government the sneakiest child abusers we have?

Many choose to home educate as they have seen the lack of care within the education system, but should these be our only options? Should we as parents be the voice saying no?.<br /><br /><a href="https://pickupakiikii.files.wordpress.com/2014/11/img_7558.jpg"><img src="https://pickupakiikii.files.wordpress.com/2014/11/img_7558.jpg" alt="IMG_7558.JPG" class="alignnone size-full" /></a>

Is school damaging children?

We pack our children's bags and dress them all the same and send them off to school every day, without for a second thinking of the risks.
This is a dangerous thought process to adopt when we see carers and teachers constantly in the media being convicted/accused of Paedophilia, violence and murder, Dunblane and Ian Huntley are among many in the school/nursery settings.
With such humongous trust being handed to these people by ourselves it's little wonder that they have such massive opportunities to commit these horrific crimes.
This is not the only example of abuse in the education system, emotional abuse is wide scale and the government openly allows, even promotes, abusive regimes/laws into schools/nurseries.
This will only be a small insight into how abuse is apparent in education and how they manage to introduce this as a positive or 'normal' thing.

Neglecting to see the damage an action may do to a child and then continuing to follow through is emotional abuse.

 http://m.bbc.co.uk/news/education-24818439
Two-year-olds from disadvantaged families should be enrolled in school nurseries to improve their chances, the chairwoman of Ofsted has suggested.
Many children from poor backgrounds have a "dire" start to their education, according to Baroness Sally Morgan.

We know from studies that starting school too early is damaging, we also know from statistics that poverty is caused by the very same people asking for a younger start for 'disadvantaged' children.
http://www.theguardian.com/teacher-network/teacher-blog/2013/dec/10/school-starting-age-five-six-uk-eu .
88% of countries in the world have a school starting age of six or seven in order to ensure that their children are given the space and time to develop all their neuro-physiological, social and emotional capacities. They must also be allowed to develop their innate theory-building and meaning-making capacities, giving them the confidence to explore their environment in a way that has real meaning and context for them.
The findings are alarming and prove that early starters are at risk of long term damage.
The members and supporters of the Save Childhood Movement's 'Too Much Too Soon' Campaign believe that children in England are starting formal learning too early, that the value of their creative and expressive play is being undermined, and that they are subject to developmentally inappropriate pressures that are damaging to their long-term health and wellbeing. http://www.toomuchtoosoon.org
It's clear from these studies that the government are neglecting our children and causing a delay in the learning and emotional development of their tiny minds.

What is a development delay?

Child development refers to the process in which children go through changes in skill development during predictable time periods, called developmental milestones. Developmental delay occurs when children have not reached these milestones by the expected time period. For example, if the normal range for learning to walk is between 9 and 15 months, and a 20-month-old child has still not begun walking, this would be considered a developmental delay.

Developmental delays can occur in all five areas of development or may just happen in one or more of those areas.
Additionally, growth in each area of development is related to growth in the other areas. So if there is a difficulty in one area (e.g., speech and language), it is likely to influence development in other areas (e.g., social and emotional).

These are the signs that a developmental delay may be happening to your child:

There are several general "warning signs" of possible delay. These include:
Behavioral Warning Signs
Does not pay attention or stay focused on an activity for as long a time as other children of the same age
Focuses on unusual objects for long periods of time; enjoys this more than interacting with others
Avoids or rarely makes eye contact with others
Gets unusually frustrated when trying to do simple tasks that most children of the same age can do
Shows aggressive behaviors and acting out and appears to be very stubborn compared with other children
Displays violent behaviors on a daily basis
Stares into space, rocks body, or talks to self more often than other children of the same age
Does not seek love and approval from a caregiver or parent

Gross Motor Warning Signs
Has stiff arms and/or legs
Has a floppy or limp body posture compared to other children of the same age
Uses one side of body more than the other
Has a very clumsy manner compared with other children of the same age

Vision Warning Signs
Seems to have difficulty following objects or people with her eyes
Rubs eyes frequently
Turns, tilts or holds head in a strained or unusual position when trying to look at an object
Seems to have difficulty finding or picking up small objects dropped on the floor (after the age of 12 months)
Has difficulty focusing or making eye contact
Closes one eye when trying to look at distant objects
Eyes appear to be crossed or turned
Brings objects too close to eyes to see
One or both eyes appear abnormal in size or coloring

Hearing Warning Signs
Talks in a very loud or very soft voice
Seems to have difficulty responding when called from across the room, even when it is for something interesting
Turns body so that the same ear is always turned toward sound
Has difficulty understanding what has been said or following directions after once she has turned 3 years of age
Doesn't startle to loud noises
Ears appear small or deformed
Fails to develop sounds or words that would be appropriate at her age

It tends to be the way the government and school body works to blame the parents or child for such above symptoms, but as we have seen In this report, just one of the many abuses occurring within education, school itself is a very dangerous place to be for a child!.

Power to the People and the Power of Collective Positivity

How we can all share the vision and hold a positive space for the Million Mask March to go peacefully and make real change.

We all want to be on the capital city's streets this Guy Fawkes night. We are all Anonymous and it’s going to be exciting, exhilarating, uniting. But there will be some people who genuinely can’t make it, for whatever reason. After all, 6pm on a Weds night is hardly the most easy to negotiate for anyone with kids, not to mention if you’re ill or have no dosh to travel - although there are other marches around the UK if London is too far. Check out their facebook pages here: Glasgow Leeds Cardiff Manchester   But if you can't get to one, scroll down for ways to support the cause from home. 

There are hundreds of marches around the world on 5th, so know that so many people are joining in EVERYWHERE. Click on the link above to access the map and find out a march near you, anywhere in the world.

This unified mind of many people around the world all focusing on joining together in genuine feeling, solidarity, love for mankind is a powerful thing. I have linked into similar worldwide moments - in meditation and protest over the last few years. Winter Solstice 2012 I was visualising the rainbow bridge around the world image in my mind in meditation every week, along with thousands of others following the 13Moon calendar and Law of Time, Unify, too. It helped me know what was real and what was fear around that calendar end date, so prophesied. Plus, I felt connected to many others miles away from me.

That end of the Mayan calendar stuff resonated, but not as the end of the world, more as the end of this current centuries-long era of war and greed, a great time of change. Thousands in Central America held ceremonies at ancient Mayan sites, acknowledging their ancestry who saw it as the changing of the ages, when the old way of corruption, war and fear does die away and a new one of peace and understanding WILL come into being. I believe this. But, fuck, it's a slow process and we have to put in the work to make it happen. And visualising a positive outcome, unifying minds in love and peace is something simple that anyone can do, anywhere, to help personally, collectively and globally. By meditating, daily, connecting to the still, calm presence behind manic life helps you know the truth, connects you to something universal. It helps get through the rocky times, at least. At most, it's exactly what this world needs to make real change, supporting direct action from the inside out.

The Million Mask March makes a statement that we are not agreeing with the way things are done, by the corrupt at the top abusing their power and trampling all over the rest of us. Time to stand up and resist. Just read the full text from the Million Mask March official facebook page and tell me you don't well up a bit, and think, I'm with this movement in any way I can be. This is genuine.

We wear the permanently smiling, beaming with truth, face behind the mask. It's real, creative, there are many in agreement, from all walks of life, it unites anyone against fracking, the TTIP, fascism, racism, sexism, in sympathy, fraternity, humanity. ANYONE with us in any way, hold us in your hearts over the next few days. We mean well. We come in peace.

And if you’re not physically on the streets, you can still be there in spirit, tuning in and sharing live footage on social media as the action unfolds, and sending everyone protection and love. The Power of the Mind is an incredible, underused, powerful resource we all need to put into action. Find out more here and here. 

Keep the home fires burning!

Maybe you’re having a bonfire night celebration anyway. After all, this is the day we've always celebrated the Guy Fawkes plot to blow up Parliament, let's get in the zone of that idea for a start! 

With friends, around the bonfire, or just at home lighting a candle, focus on the Million Mask March with love and positivity, hoping that it reaches its best possible outcome, that the police back off, and that we overthrow the government. Hold this all as a strong image in your mind and feel it in your heart, then send it with love to the marchers on the streets. I’m going to hold that vision for the next few days anyway. Hey, it may not get as far as the government standing down, but it’s worth keeping it mind as our intention – surely eventually it will manifest...

Hard as it is, send the police love too. Admittedly, they are usually the ones creating the agro, not the protestors, but they are human too and being shafted just as much by the State, let’s face it. Maybe some will even join in the march on the side of what’s right and just. Here's hoping.

So at 6pm on Weds 5^th November, wherever you are, stop for a good few minutes. Meditate on peace, send that love and protection to the protestors and hold all humanity in your hearts for the coming revolution! 

Show your solidarity in any way you can – that’s what the wearing of the mask is all about, not to cover our identity but to show unified solidarity to the cause of fighting corruption, standing together for what’s right, helping each other, the poor, the homeless, as the State has failed to do so.

• Wear your mask to work or wherever you are going on the 5th.
• Wear it into London on the train or bus, and stare out into the darkness.
• Have it as your profile picture on social media.
• Show your support by sharing the event widely.

Other protection tips –

Practical, if you’re going along - read through this site thoroughly: http://greenandblackcross.org/legal/keyadvice

Spiritual, there or not: Surround yourself and/or the masked marchers in a big blue bubble of light. Imagine you are covered with an invisibility cloak, made entirely of LOVE. Whatever helps you feel safe and strong.

Big love to everyone - we are all connected. 
Peace brothers and sisters. Stay safe!
