Whether physical or emotional, abuse attacks a childs self-esteem and emotional development, leaving long-term emotional trauma and pain. You can help prevent child abuse by being a nurturing parent or caregiver. By letting children know they are special, competent and loved, you can help them develop positive self-images and happier futures. If you feel overwhelmed, angry or frustrated as a parent, help is out there for you. Look in your area for support groups and services, or talk to a trusted friend, family member, pastor or doctor about what you can do to protect and support your child. If we all do our part to prevent child abuse, well get to the heart of the matter. Acton/Georgetown, Friday, May 2, 2008 11 The entire student body at Christ the King Catholic High School in Georgetown was awash in pink t-shirts for one day recently to support anti-bullying initiatives at the school. Part of the province-wide Safe at School campaign, the 1,500 students listened to guest speakers and all signed anti-bullying contracts to back up their pink-shirted commitment. The idea came from some students in Nova Scotia, who wanted to make a statement after a Grade 9 student was threatened for wearing a pink shirt on his first day of school this past September, and numerous schools across the country have followed the trend. As well, one of North Americas top student leadership trainers and high school motivation- al speakers, California native Keith Hawkins, addressed students in two separate assemblies. Sometimes humourous, other times coldly blunt about the challenges facing teens today, Hawkins grew up in a harsh single-parent envi- ronment and was homeless for his Grade 7 year, finding refuge by sleeping at his school. He spoke about the nature of bullying and self- confidence, while also asking youths to dis- close any problems they may be having to fami- ly, friends or school staff. Hawkins early high school days were spent as a troublemaker who didnt care about his education, tormenting some schoolmates and teachers. My basketball coach told me that teachers were not my enemy, FEAR is the enemy False Evidence Appearing Real, Hawkins explained to a captivated audience. I used to come up with evidence about teachers, and all my friends would laugh about it. I would come up with evidence about people with different skin colour, different culture, different lan- guage, and all my friends actually believed it. As well as conducting a Simon Says exercise with the students to illustrate how most people will follow the actions of another before theyll listen, Hawkins at one point asked the students who were struggling in some part of their lives and hadnt told anyone about it to stand up, and several of the teens did rise out of their seats. We dont come to school and talk about this because if we talked about this, it would be something that really matters in life, he added. In most schools in Canada and North America, they usually talk about things that dont matter, because people will accept that. Lets start to talk about things that do (matter). Grade 12 CtK student Jozo Markic was impressed with the presentation and the theme of the day. I was surprised so many people stood up when (Hawkins) asked them, but it was a good thing, said Markic. If a teacher just came out and asked that question in class, nobody would say anything. Bullying might be an issue in Grades 9 and 10, but for the Grade 11 and 12s, most people respect each other here, so its a different situa- tion, but everything (Hawkins) said is true, said Markic.
