That's why it's important that if you're going to stand up for yourself, you do it in the early stages, because once it's progressed and escalated for so long, people get too comfortable with abusing you and no amount of standing up for yourself is going to do any good, because they've gotten comfortable and they've gotten complacent.
Imagine being a star student one day and a target for bullies the next. Cherie White knows this story all too well. In this episode of 'Stop Child Abuse Now', Cherie, an anti-bullying advocate and author, opens up about her harrowing experiences with bullying and how she turned her pain into a mission to help others. Growing up in Covington, Tennessee, Cherie faced relentless bullying that shattered her self-esteem and academic performance.
Her ordeal didn't end at school; it followed her into adulthood, affecting her marriage and mental health. But instead of succumbing to despair, Cherie chose to fight back, becoming a beacon of hope for those suffering similar fates. She discusses the predator/prey dynamic she learned about in sixth grade, the emotional toll of poly-victimization, and her journey from victim to advocate.
Cherie's candid conversation touches on the importance of early self-assertion, the role of family and community support, and practical steps toward healing. This episode is a must-listen for anyone who has faced bullying or knows someone who has. It's a raw, honest look at the long-term impacts of bullying and a testament to the power of resilience.
