Cyberbullying Discussion with Holli Kenley – The Importance of Empathy

You should follow Victor on Facebook!

I had a great interview today with Author and Therapist Holli Kenley on the topic of cyber bullying.  I didn’t really know what it was or what was involved, but I got a great education on it today!  We talked for so long that I will be breaking the talk into three sections — the first section is available today, and then the other two will be available later this week.

One of the many take-aways from our discussion today was the importance of empathy and its role in bullying on all levels and all types.  The erosion of empathy in our society, due largely impart to an imbalance of the use of technology, is contributing to cyberbullying and other types of bullying.

I am thrilled to have Author and Therapist Holli Kenley on with me!  Holli is going to discuss the topic of cyber bullying on the show on Tuesday.  I am so excited to hear what she has to share with us!
