Parents need to stop expecting the schools to raise their kids. Too many people are lazy and won't teach their kids how to behave. Simple as that.
2 :
Kick em' in the nuts if they bug ya! jk. i have no clue.. we don't have any bullying at my school
3 :
Raise kids with stronger morals. Have programs in school that will actually have a great effect on kids. Despite drug programs, kids still go out and do drugs. We need programs that will really help kids understand the effects of bullying. People need to understand that bullying is no joke; it's harming another person mentally and physically. Also help people to know that they're responsible for ruining another person's life if they're bullying them.
4 :
Schools can have as many seminars, and meetings about bullying as they want. No teenager pays attention during those, and when they do they treat it as a joke. It all goes back to the parents of the bullies, who obviously fail to teach them morals.

Can you obtain financial aid in the USA for attending grad school abroad
Can you obtain financial aid in the USA for attending grad school abroad?
A few friends and I have been considering attending grad school in Australia/New Zealand. Obviously we would need to take out loans and I was wondering if these are easily obtainable. It's important to note that this is not a study abroad program within a United States University but actually attending a University there for Masters/PHD degrees.

Fulbright or Rhodes Scholar. You have to be really superb -- there are very few of these fellowships and the competition is extreme. As for student loans: you had better look into this carefully as you might not be able to get loans in the US for studies abroad.

Have you contacted AFS or EF? These are among the most popular and prestigious study abroad organizations in the world. I've had some experience working with AFS and they are very professional and really care about their students.

My son went to Japan with AFS and had a very good experience. www.usa.afs.org We went with AFS because he only wanted to go to Japan and we could pick a country through this program. A large number of students also go through their local Rotary Exchange program. You aren't always guaranteed your first choice country, but it is much cheaper to go this route. http://www.rotary.org/en/StudentsAndYouth/YouthPrograms/RotaryYouthExchange/Pages/ridefault.aspx Both programs are student and parent friendly and supplied great support and information.

Hi there, I'm hosting a student through a smaller agency called ERDTShare. It is a non-profit. I don't know exactly how you would go about comparing one US agency to another -- but I wouldn't do it based on their websites. Per my own testimonial, I can tell you that ERDTShare really cares about the student and works hard to ensure a good match as well as student and host-family success. They have been extremely professional to work with. I know of one particular large, pretigious exchange agency who recently sent home a student in our local high school because of irreconcilable differences with her host family. If she had been placed with a different agency, she probably would have simply been relocated to a new family. All that being said, be sure that you understand and you're fully comfortable with how your prospective agency handles situations where there may be a mismatch between student and family. And don't discount the smaller agencies even if their websites aren't as cool.... because they likely have other assets that are more important. I would suggest that you make some phone calls to assess the agencies rather than basing your analysis solely on the websites. Here's a link to the agency we've used. We've really enjoyed the experience working with them. The coordinators are very professional, caring, fun and accomodating, and the students are top notch. http://www.erdtshare.org/ Best of luck to you!
