Thirteen-year-old Wesley Oleksuk was personable and bright. He was also the victim of bullying so vicious that he took his own life. In telling the tragic story, this program places the focus on this growing social problem, and on its victims who are often too afraid or too embarrassed to seek help. We see how Wesley confronted his tormentors, to no avail, how school officials ignored the problem, and how Wesley's struggle for acceptance eventually led to uncharacteristic antisocial behavior. A psychologist shares a disturbing video of one child's 37-minute beating at the hands of classmates, and explains why children are reluctant to report similar incidents. The long-term psychological effects of bullying are explored. (28 minutes) © Copyright 1996
