Revealed the Emotional Solution to Bullying

 

Wetherby, UK -- (SBWIRE) -- 11/24/2014 -- Bullying is an emotional issue...even it's cyber-bullying...so it needs an emotional solution.

How can kids manage their emotions when they don't even know where they come from?

Today sees the launch of Jack Cherry and The Juicer after 18 months of conversations, trialling and development involving 400 7 to 11 year olds.

Kids learn that feelings come from thoughts like juice comes from fruit.

And they also learn to protect themselves from bullies by "putting the lid on the Juicer" so the nasty negative fruit from bullies who say nasty things to them can't upset them.

Here's what some children say.

Now I know about the Juicer...

“I can go back to dance club. I stopped going because someone said nasty things to me. I will ignore her.” Alex, 10

“I can ignore people who are unkind.” William, 7

“I can ignore other people who say I am stupid.” Sadie, 9

“I can block bullies from hurting me”. Billy, 10

“I can ignore people who are saying horrible things, make my own decisions, have a happy life, make other people happy.” Sophie, 10

“I can stop bullies putting bad fruit into my juicer and I can put good fruits instead.” Kassi, 7

“I can be happy in everything no matter who puts me down.” Amy, 11

“I can be positive and be a good role model and beat bullying.” Helen, 8
