Comments on: We are being bullied? http://thefamilyschoolleadership.com/2010/03/05/we-are-being-bullied/ Discussing issues relevant to residential placement for troubled teens Fri, 11 Nov 2011 00:03:50 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.3.1 By: Barbara Thorbjörnsson http://thefamilyschoolleadership.com/2010/03/05/we-are-being-bullied/comment-page-1/#comment-185 Barbara Thorbjörnsson Thu, 22 Apr 2010 14:47:05 +0000 http://thefamilyschoolleadership.com/?p=758#comment-185 They who oppose are children or young adults. We are the adults and we should lead by example. I am reminded of a Scripture that says, "Having done all you can do; stand." When Jesus was slandered and falsely accused; He said nothing. He did not feel a need to defend Himself against a lie; He knew the truth; He was the truth. According to good program; we do not retaliate; so, even responding, at times, is an invitation to continue. A fanning of the flames, so to speak. To answer a fool according to his own folly will make your thinking fall apart. Pray with a clean and good heart. They who oppose are children or young adults.

Anyone who spends a lot of time trying to harm others is most likely in a state of fear. While I am tempted to get angry when I read the lies about our wonderful school, I know this is not the answer. I agree that we should pray for our bullies.
