mARTIAL Arts H.E.R.O. & S.H.E.R.O.S.

Did you know that 96% of children will be bullied at least once in their lifetime? Or that out of those bullied for an extended period 46% of those children will suffer poor grades or will abstain from extra-curricular activities because of the bullying?  Or that 2% of those children bullied will commit suicide because of constant harassment from classmates?
What is Bullying? Bullying includes a wide variety of behaviors, but all behaviors involve a person or a group repeatedly trying to harm someone who is weaker or more vulnerable. It can involve direct physical attacks,  threatening or intimidating, taunting, name-calling, or damaging someone’s belongings. 
The sad truth of it all is that it happens a lot more than some people think – studies show that ,” 96% of children will be bullied at least once in their lifetime.   46% of those children will suffer poor grades or will abstain from extra-curricular activities because of the bullying.  2% of those children will commit suicide because of constant harassment from classmates. And even sadder is the fact that bullying may impact a child’s  life very dramatically. All the motivation that a child has to succeed in school, sports, and any endeavor in life, comes from a child’s confidence and self-esteem. A bully robs a child of those very important traits that can have a negative impact on the rest of their life.
 Sidekciks Family Martial Arts has designed a program as a free community service seminar in over 104 cities across the United States to help educate adults and children of the severity of bullying through its nationally recognized “Bully Proof Kids”.
