I took a look at your link and will definitely be watching today at 4pm. It is heartbreaking what kids go thru and we all know the struggle too well. Its hard enough as an adult to deal with everything, but as a kid it must be even harder. Thanks for the heads up on the show!

OMG, I was at the gym while this was on and was watching it while on the elliptical--and I started getting all choked-up!!!  I've also got it taped here at home, so I'll watch it later (I missed the 1st part). 

The 2nd half of the show is tomorrow, so don't miss it! 

Always,
Jo

It was just heartbreaking to watch those kids. They are so young and have such a mountain to climb that most of them feel hopeless. Their eyes all told how sad they were. I talked to my 11yr old and asked if he ever made fun of anyone at school~I know he doesn't b/c he's a really good kid, but I wanted to use that as a way to open up the conversation. I'm looking forward to tomorrow's show to see if any good advice is given on how to help these kids.
