Teachers were intimidated, they didnt want to be seen to have any empathy because that might reflect on them. Its crazy but thats part of the oppression. When we started to work on the legislation, i tried to channel myself back in the classroom, i taught for a number of years. Were hoping seths law is the first of many. In addition to their reporting you also have to document, we feel like this is the science of it which, you know, sounds a little sterile when you consider the emotional loss, b...

Having this training, having this awareness go beyond the schools is really important. So i thought id mention that. The other thing that we are moving towards in education is more digital. Well see less textbooks and more Digital Learning and with that we are promoting a Digital Literacy policy which deals with a number of issues and im going to go back and look at the draft policy to see how well it deals with the kind of issues rob and your family have dealt with in terms of using the interne...

Children do not pass before their parents. We began to see that the school, the high school in los gatos, led by a very strong, great principled people, brought in an organization to help and after all i should preface in 2009 was a brutal year for los gatos high school, they lost two other students shortly before jill died. The school and principal brought in a Counseling Group called cassie, counseling and support services for youth, embedded counseling. And their job was to change the culture...

Taught for a number of years. Were hoping seths law is the first of many. In addition to their reporting you also have to document, we feel like this is the science of it which, you know, sounds a little sterile when you consider the emotional loss, but that you document each incident as it happens so you have a record and you also look at the climate, the culture, and also the perpetrator. We have a second piece of legislation that calls for the restoretive justice element that people were talk...

Exactly what that volunteer chaplain was doing for me. Were you able to aggregate how much the u. S. Spends in taxpayer dollars on end of life care . Was that easy to find . It was not easy to find the right statistic. There are a lot of wrong statistics floating out there but the reality is a quarter of what medicare spends is spent on the last year of life so when you consider people may be in medicare 20 or 30 years that is an extraordinary imbalance and it shows something majorly wrong with ...

Services for youth, embedded counseling. And their job was to change the culture, very much what weve heard today, change the culture to get rid of the stigma of Mental Health and understanding that a lot of these kids feel anxiety and stress, they need someone to talk to. They just dont have the perspective that an adult has. One of the things that struck me was the boys were interviewed, they knew they were in trouble, but i didnt hear them say im sorry, i shouldnt have sent the picture on. Th...

There was it wasnt written as a written warning from a standard Human Resource perspective. It was just titled, corrective action letter. That was in 2011. I received nothing until 2013. So there was a silence between 2011 and 2013. I received another letter that said i was basically late on assignments. And it listed four of those. And then the final letter was i sent inappropriate emails when i requested Human Resources, had they done an investigation to because an email by itself, without the...

Maybe somebody loves me. Im always touched by that. Some day bullying will be something of the past. I also wanted to say we need to work and i see representatives here of cities and counties because those same children are on sports teams under the city rec department, they are receiving services and they are in programs with the county and so having this training, having this awareness go beyond the schools is really important. So i thought id mention that. The other thing that we are moving t...

Little young voice said, is this robert neighbor . The only person who calls me robert is my mom and this was not my mom. She went on to say she was thinking of committing suicide and she went on you tube and found some videos that some of jills friend had made about jill. And she thought, if somebody loves jill that much, maybe somebody loves me. Im always touched by that. Some day bullying will be something of the past. I also wanted to say we need to work and i see representatives here of cit...
