Some Weeks ago we had a discussion about the book "The King of the Castle, in which one of the main characters is the bully Edmund Hooper. In our discussion we had noticed that bullying is something that many of us, and of course our "therapist" C.B., we had suffer of this awful practise when we were children.
Guess what! The President of USA, Barrack Obama, had the same experience in his childhood. The White House hosted recently an anti-bullying conference, after the suicide of a student, because of a private video scene, with the student and an other man, that was released amid internet!
"We've got to dispel this myth that bullying is just a normal rite of passage, that it's some inevitable part of growing up. It's not... As a nation, we're founded on the belief that all of us are equal and each of us deserves the freedom to pursue our own version of happiness," Mr. Obama said in the conference.
A funny point of view emerged when the black President noted that when he was student the other guys laughed at him because of his big ears and his weird name!
It is obvious; Edmund Hooper had bullying the little Barrack, toο!
