THE PROBLEM:
Every 17 seconds a child is being bullied!
There is a lot of bullying going on in the world today. We see it on the news, between countries, or between coutry leaders and their people. We see it where we live at work, traveling to work, and in the businesses we visit to acquire what we need to get by in this world. We see it at home, between parents, between parents and children, and, of course, between our kids themselves.
That, in fact, is where bullying begins when we're kids. We get bullied, perhaps become bullies ourselves, and never learn how to stop the bully the bully inside ourselves or the bully that harrasses us.
The winner of a fight is the one who prevents it!
Parents want their children to be safe!
BULLYING IS THE #1 SOCIAL ISSUE FOR CHILDREN'S LIVES TODAY!

| What is Education for Peace®?
Education for Peace® is a comprehensive program that addresses the causes of human conflict in the conditioning created by prejudicial thinking and action, from schoolyard bullying to war.
Our pioneering program benefits your commnity in 2 ways.
- It immediately helps children cope with a growing social problem bullying.
- As these children grow up, it helps them avoid and reduce the teenage violence that is becoming one of America's, and the world's greatest concerns.

| How does Education for Peace® address conflict that leads to war?
By understanding the basic factors the create conflict one can address it at the primary level in the way we have been conditioned to think, starting with individual bullying that young people face everyday. Bullying not understood in early childhood development can lead to bullying into adulthood, in domestic violence and war. In other words, the basic structure and nature of conditioned thinking that goes into creating a playground bully is essentially the same as the bully on the battlefield. Understanding the one youve understood the other.

| Why don't the conventional approaches to resolving conflict work?
Understanding human conflict is conventionally addressed in a remedial, reactive way at the secondary level of resolution through therapeutic or moralistic means, as in the case of individual conflict, or through diplomatic or political intervention, as in the case of social conflict - or it is addressed at the tertiary level of managing conflict through judicial, or military intervention. These remedial, reactive approaches do not address conflict at the primary prevention level in understanding and avoiding the fundamental psychological factors that create conflict in the conditioned way we think and act and are therefore essentially ineffective because they do not prevent conflict from happening in the first place.
