A Blog Post from Nelli of The LadyBugs

Stop Bullying Now!
As you know, The LadyBugs are very passionate about helping kids stand up to bullies.  The LadyBugs have all been victims of bullies.  Many of you saw me being bullied in the first episode of our web series Meet The LadyBugs! called "Break His Thumbs"

It's very important to teach kids assertiveness and self-confidence so they can stand up to bullies.  Well, there's an author named Joe the Biker who writes children's books about standing up to bullies.  One of his books is Yubbie The Fall and Rise of an Everyday Joe.  He also provides free books and information on his website www.joethebiker.com. 

Don't Commit Suicide
If you watched Girl's Night Out, the 3rd episode of Meet The LadyBugs you heard us perform part of our song, Don't Commit Suicide.  There aren't a lot of recording artists who tackle the subject of kids committing suicide, but we think it's really important.  Kids usually end up killing themselves after being bullied.  Make sure your kids know how important they are in your life.  Just like we say in our song When you feel like youre all alone and you just want to end it all picture your Mom and Dad crying and standing by your friends at your funeral.  

The LadyBugs are experts at helping parents talk to their kids about difficult subject matter.
