“Sometimes you build friendships and other times you make friends…
Between the tear and the laugh a rollercoaster of emotions!”
#MOI Let them know they are not alone and ensure they know how other kids feel
There is a solution…

Stop Bullying: Speak Up

“Yesterday, a child told me, I prefer to eat alone in class!
I looked at the child and said, how about you join me on a picnic in the school small grass area, as I, myself, would like some quiet time during break.
I did not ask why, I thought he will eventually speak up when comfortable…
I did not ask what do you have for lunch, thinking what if that was the reason behind wanting to be alone…
I did not force any other students to join, I was sure, once they see us, they will join…
We got artistic material and went to the grass area, others started crawling once they saw us, out of curiosity…
I opened a blanket on the grass, where I put some snacks on, then asked the students whether they like to join in by placing their own…
& we started putting together paper kites…
Before the end of the break, all children had eaten, and all were part of the kite group, playing, laughing, and talking to each other…”
#MOI we all have a role, actions speak louder than words, I acted and not investigated, empathy is the secret, try to understand!

“Is your child ready for school?
Believe it or not, this is an anxious phase for every child; and getting our children ready is by far more difficult than we believe.
I agree with the statement saying <<kids need to outgrow their difficulties>> but let me remind you of the adult first day of work… not a piece of cake!
Between the outfit, hairstyle, physical changes for those returning to school, the academic abilities, the physical and language challenges, the friendships, the new comers fit in concerns, puberty changes… children, whether we like to admit it or not, would have to face the my friends or no friends, the loud and outspoken, the bullies, the memories and past experience, and would have to find a way to prove themselves.
Sadly, this is school, and not all are equipped, whether parents, children, and/or educators, to help properly.
I included children in the help part, as I believe that children play a major role in the comfort of others in their community, they can make it or break it!
Advise, and would like to hear your stories, do not ignore any withdrawal symptoms you sense, this could be the beginning of a series of emotional, physical, and academic improvement.
Yes, our child could be the victim, bully, or sadly a bystander!
As every member of any community, this member must be equipped with values that enable him/her to be the change in their community, to make a change without fear, to be a leader and an ambassador of peace.
I believe that change will start with one person, it is contagious, but the support mechanism is evidential to move it forward.
Dear colleagues in the process, join me to make this world a better place for our children, state your opinion, share a story, share your experience, and feel free to get the help of Abigail, the main character in MOMMY, I AM A PACER!.”

“He wasn’t just a little boy, that boy in the class. I watched him grow and witnessed him struggle, but, I stood there watching!
It is the story, the story of bullying, not only written words in a book, or scenes taking place in a movie…. bullying is the reality our children live on a daily basis.
Observe your children’s behavior, the changes in pattern, in dress code, their eating habits, the playing routine, their friendship… bullies will not admit their actions, victims shall not confirm the pain, and bystanders will live with regret!
The bullying disease that took over for generations, will not stop overnight… where does your child fall, under which category? Can you encourage them to speak up?
You may be able to protect them periodically, but the change should happen from within!
The rule of “you are my friend. or will have no friend!” is the statement that we need to push our children to stop using…
The statement of “you cannot attend my birthday” when a whole class is invited except few, is in the hand of adults to set the tone to their children by saying, you either invite the class or only a few, and remember the birthday is a memory for our children to enjoy and not to tease the left outs…
The sarcastic attitude that intimidates a child and humiliates them is forbidden, our child might be outspoken, beautiful, with high skills in academics or physical activities, but the other children have special abilities as well…
Let us help our children take pride in self for what they have and do, but be humble enough to praise others for their achievements and help them reach their potential.
Call it teamwork, call it integrity, honesty, loyalty, respect, responsibility, humility, empathy, compassion, agility, perseverance, humility, fairness… I call it, help them become a PACER!
Mommy, I am A PACER! is a book of 5 short stories for parents and children. The book targets the incidents children survive on a daily basis, and help them, through co-illustration with the author, solve them and freely discuss them when they see the main character Abigail go through the same incidents.
Life is not a book, but at times knowing that someone knows how we feel will help us acknowledge, express, and deal with our own feelings. Hope you get to have your own
and help your child change and be the change in his/her community following ABIGAIL’s footsteps.”

“You are the change… simply because you are different!
Tell that to your children when they are going to school, tell them, today is the day they will make a difference in someone else’s life, simply because they are different, they will not fear to accept others as they are, they will not ignore the bullying taking place around them, they will not leave a child behind, and they will stand by righteousness!
Tell them to join Abigail’s journey and make their world a better place!”

“Truth be told, every child needs to live in a comfort zone, be happy, feel loved,
enjoy friendship, be respected, be heard, etc…
I don’t need articles to dictate their rights, yet, I am glad they exist to remind the world that
children are the seeds of tomorrow fruitful tree, and the leaders of our peaceful world!
What are we teaching those seeds, when surrounded with unexplained crime and injustice?
Adults steal their life, security, safety, happiness, joy, they take away their loved ones in unexpected
situations, they live drama, trauma, and fear… they steal their dreams!
Help your child remain positive while surrounded with a deteriorated community, help them speak up,
help them express their emotions, and mainly hold their hands to become a PACER, and not bystanders, not living
invisibly, silent, or in fear!
Mommy, I am a PACER! a book of 5 short stories for every child, read it with your child, illustrate it with them, & help
them survive everyday concerns by following the lead of Abigail, the main character!”

“HE is not just a dog… it is Amber, Omar’s dog, the new kid on the bloc, that was bullied!
Is your child bullied? is he the bully? or is he the bystander?
Well, no matter where he or she stands, all three are in pain and need help.
Bullies, have a major problems, they are insensitive, and get their anger upon other people…
Victims, are intimidated, living in fear, and feel overpowered by those who are bigger in size, or outspoken…
As for bystanders, they need to learn to take action in this world, and make a difference in their community…
Bullying, the disease taking over schools, to reach every home, and even jobs must be dealt with, with a know how, and practice to stand for self and others!
I invite you, parents, and friends, to read MOMMY, I AM A PACER! and join Abigail the main character, the PACER in my book, with her endeavor to change the world!
One cannot make a change alone, but together we can make our world a better place!”

“During Conflicts among Children, 7 becomes just a number!
Believe it or not, it is very difficult for a child to be left behind, it is not a matter of my child likes solo activities, when a child prefers his own company, it means that this child is either resisting to fit in or refraining from facing others and conflicts… both not healthy for the child if not dealt with.
MOMMY I AM A PACER! a book that deals with children’s difficulties and encourages them to change their behavior and be the change leader in their surrounding.
Some children are leaders by birth and other follow by example and that example is ABIGAIL, the main character. In the paragraph below, Abigail’s Grandpa was helping her solve conflicts with her friends by following the seven steps of conflict resolution.
I encourage you to buy the book for your child, read it yourself, and with him/her, and watch them change and express themselves through actions and co-illustration!
Enjoy!
“Seven becomes just a number once the conflicts are solved.
Step one: remain calm while talking.
Step two: ask your friend about the reason behind the conflict.
Step three: listen carefully
Step four: repeat what your friend has said to ensure you heard properly and show them care to know the reason.
Step five: tell your friend how you feel, peacefully.
Step six: discuss a way to maintain your friendship in respect to both of you.
Step seven: if you cannot reach a solution, call an adult to help.””

“The child that changed the world, is he or she out there…. yes, & that child could be yours!
There is always this child with enough empathy to make a difference in their surroundings, with enough care to stand for others, & enough courage to face and defeat the bullies.
That child is inside every child of yours, with little encouragement they could be the change!
Read MOMMY I AM A PACER with them, & let them learn by the example of Abigail.

“My friend or No friends… is the disease of bullying that is talking over schools around the world. It is one sort of bullying among many where children take the lead in groups and unfortunately decide who and what.
Bullying, I always called it the vicious circle, unless the victim has a very strong personality, he/she will end up overpowering weaker or smaller people to feel better about themselves because sadly they fear to stand for the bully.
Why do children bully others, I always asked my students to look profoundly in the eye of the bully and try to find the weakness that lead to bullying; not all victims can do that!
Why do victims succumb to bullies and deny the fact that they were bullied? fear, shame, ego, and many more… my heart aches for those that cannot stand for self!
& Bystanders… when are you going to learn to stand for yourself by standing for others! Imagine the world around you when you stand by those who need you!”
#MOI and Abigail, the character that stood for her friends, give your child a chance to express themselves by following the steps of Abigail in MOMMY, I AM A PACER!
