About Jodee
Blanco
Jodee Blanco walked through the halls of her elementary, middle and
high schools, knowing that at any moment, she would be tormented,
teased, called names and physically harmed. She went to school every
day, approaching it like a battlefield, she against the bullies who
ruined her childhood.
And then Jodee reached a breaking point.
Pushed to the edge, Jodee attempted to bring a butcher knife to
school. To this day, she says that had her mother not found the
knife in her book bag and confiscated it, she believes she would
have gone through with her desperate impulse.
After moving on to become a successful entertainment publicist,
Jodee Blanco has dedicated her life to turning the pain of her past
into purpose. With her New York Times bestselling memoir
Please Stop Laughing At Me…, the shocking story of how she was
tormented by her classmates from elementary through high school,
this courageous woman sparked a landmark movement in our nation's
schools. In the compelling memoir just hitting stores now, Please
Stop Laughing At Us…. One Survivor's Extraordinary Quest to Prevent
School Bullying, she responds to the demand for more information
from teens, parents, educators and other adult survivors like
herself who have come to know and trust her as the champion of their
cause.

About the
Book
Jodee provides you with advice, answers and solutions, set against
the narrative of her own personal journey as the survivor of peer
abuse who finds herself the voice of America's forgotten students.
For the past six years, she has been working deep inside the
trenches of our schools with students, teachers and parents in an
effort to motivate change. She has witnessed the apathy of teachers
and administrators who ignore students in peril and been inspired by
adults in the school system who are risking everything for their
students.
What you will learn from Please Stop Laughing at Us…:
- The typical
profile of the bullied child
- What you
should and should never say to a bullied child and why
- The two types
of bullies and why one is innocuous and the other dangerous
- The two types
of popular student and how one can be utilized to help shift the
social dynamic of a school from the inside out
- How the bully
and the victim are often flipsides of the same coin
- Why
traditional punishment doesn't work and why it needs to be
supplemented by compassionate discipline, among other vital
information.
"… an exposé of America's schools today, a shocking look at how many
of today's students in peril are ignored." Curriculum Review
Along
with sharing her experiences as she travels the nation's schools,
Jodee gives tips not only for those bullied, the bullies and the
bystanders, but also for parents, educators and adult survivors of
peer abuse. Here is a sample of some of the advice Jodee gives:
Advice
for educators
Remember, the bully and the victim are flipsides of the same coin.
Both are bleeding emotionally; both need the love and support. When
approaching the bully, begin the conversation on an encouraging note
with something like, "Johnny, I enjoy being your teacher and I know
you're a really good kid; that's why it surprised me when you…."
Then, launch into the issue you need to discuss, trying to be as
general as possible and only using the victim's name if there's no
other alternative. This will help to prevent retaliation later on.
Advice
for parents
Be alert to warning signs that your child may be getting bullied.
Those signs could include: lethargy, depression, self-mutilation,
extreme makeover attempts, diminished personal hygiene, lack of
interest in social activities, sudden change in weight, inexplicable
fits of rage, sudden increase or decrease in grades, and faking
illness or willing oneself sick to avoid going to school.
Advice
for Adult Survivors of Peer Abuse
Turn your pain into purpose and reach out to your local school
district and ask if you could speak to students about your
experiences to help create awareness of how hurtful bullying can be.

of life." Skipping Stone Magazine

Don't Laugh at Me program from Operation Respect |
|
| |
|
|
| |
 |
Through music, video, and
classroom activities, the "Don't Laugh at Me" (DLAM) programs help
sensitize children to the painful effects of behaviors that too often
are accepted as necessary rites of passage in childhood - ridicule,
disrespect, ostracism and bullying. DLAM is designed to inspire
students, along with their teachers and other educators, to transform
their classrooms and schools into "Ridicule Free Zones". Children
participating in DLAM learn that by working together they can positively
shape their school environment, and eventually bring this message to the
broader community. The program materials include a curriculum guide, CD,
and video for both schools and summer camps. The school program consists
of two separate curricula; one developed for grades 2-5 and the second
developed for grades 6-8. Visit

Preview of God's Shrink by Dr. Michael Adamse |
|
| |
|
|
| |
|
|
Like most seasoned
psychiatrists, Dr. Richard Johnson thought he'd heard it all. His
assuredness falters when a first-time client arrives at his office and
announces that he is God. Listening intently to the man, who is
obviously suffering from severe psychosis, he agrees to take the case.
What transpires over the course of the next nine sessions will test
everything in the doctor's bag of tricks. As he struggles to unravel the
client's illness before he becomes a danger to himself, a chilling
series of coincidences and events cause him to question everything he
thought he knew about himself, his place in the world, and life after
death. Was their time together the revelations of divinity or the
ramblings of a delusional? What's possible? You decide... Ten sessions.
A lifetime of answers.
Dr. Michael Adamse has also authored Affair of the Net and
Anniversary. He received his Ph.D. in Clinical Psychology from the
University of Miami after completing a pre-doctoral fellowship at Yale
University. Dr. Adamse currently lectures worldwide for Nova
Southeastern University where he holds an appointment as Adjunct
Professor. He also served as a captain in the U.S. Army Reserve. Visit

A straight-talking,
sharp-witted manifesto on modern love, Shery Argov raises the stakes as
she explores the complex dynamics of long-term commitment in the New
York Times bestseller Why Men Marry Bitches on sale wherever

Why Men Marry Bitches delivers a unique perspective as to why men
are attracted to a strong woman who stands up for herself. With saucy
examples on every page, this book delivers a compelling message as to
why a woman with a backbone is much more desirable to a man than a "yes"
woman who routinely sacrifices herself. This book is not only packed
with powerful advice for women, it is seasoned by secret admissions
coming directly from men. Once you've discovered why men think a feisty
attitude is so attractive, you'll not only increase the romantic
chemistry in the relationship, you'll also gain your man's love and
respect with far less effort.
