The 'Say NO to Bullies' T-shirt is a good and simple symbol to incorporate into young minds, but is the weakest way to deal with the predatory energy in your face as a child. It is a weakly pointing a finger at the big bad wolf. In the streets, in the real world it is as weak as Nancy Reagan's 'Say No To Drugs' jingle during the rise of crack in the streets of the 1980's! It, like this sales campaign, was a marketing tool. It is cute, but if a child understood the story of the 3 Little Pigs, for example, their understanding of bullying, and their internalizing of the 3rd pig would change many things in their lives. This is the story my Mother used repeatedly throughout my childhood until I mastered the 3rd pig's craft at 14. Afterwards, I never had to physically fight anyone well into my 30's when I became a police officer. And even then that story was alive and effectively working within me for the benefit of others.
The right stories within people masterfully told and enforced changes the energy bodies of victims, of the prey. It isn't ad and sales campaigns. It is the deep appreciation, and understanding of the hunt. It is the introspective lives of children's parents that needs to honestly assess their lives because our children mirror not only their parents, but the culture they are born into. Children see every contradiction living in a country bullying other countries, and its own citizenry. Dig what I'm saying? - Gregory E. Woods, Keeper of Stories 6.4.13
