Allison Carmen reflects on how early experiences with bullies can shape a child's self-perception and future confidence, revealing that true strength lies in compassion, not control.

Quotes to ponder:
"Real strength does not need to prove anything. It can stand on its own without a word spoken and that is the real power."
"It takes more strength to be peaceful, loving and kind in the face of adversity than to yell and scream and hurt the ones around you."
"My hope is that true strength will follow them through life so their success won't be determined by the bully in the room."
