THE “IN” CROWD AND SOCIAL CRUELTY

An ABC News special with John Stossel reveals why some kids dish out abuse, why other kids take it, and what everyone can do to address the problem. Psychologist Michael Thompson and Stossel trace factors that cause children and adolescents to be popular, picked on, or just ignored. In addition to interviews, the program features hidden-camera footage of bullies in action, celebrities who were outcasts, and visits to schools with anti-bullying programs that really work. Grades 6–12. Closed captioned. Color. 41 minutes. Films for the Humanities and Sciences. ©2002. Available in the U.S. and Canada only.
