Justice For Puppy Doe

This video was produced by my daughter, London and I. It is in memory of, and to honor, Puppy Doe.
Puppy Doe was a severely abused dog, found in a Massachusetts park. She had been so badly abused that the vets could not save her. Her story has gone viral and petitions have been started, and a new Bill, hopefully, will be passed to start a registry for animal abusers.
This is our way of telling her story, so that she is never forgotten.
Rest in peace, Puppy Doe. Many, many people are fighting for you, and others like you.
Your life was not in vain. You will forever live in our hearts, and our fighting spirits!

WHAT IS COMPASSION SCHOOL?

I get this question a lot. What is Compassion School? It’s not just another program or curriculum—it’s a movement. Compassion School is a groundbreaking approach to education designed to nurture empathy, kindness, and respect for animals in children from an early age. Imagine a classroom where math, science, and language arts intertwine with lessons on understanding animal emotions, advocating for creatures in need, and recognizing the interconnectedness of all life. That’s Compassion School. Why Focus on Empathy for Animals? Children are naturally curious about animals, but that curiosity isn’t always guided toward understanding and respect. Traditional education often overlooks emotional intelligence toward non-human lives. Compassion School fills that gap. Here’s why it matters: Empathy as a Foundation: Empathy isn’t just "being nice"—it’s a critical life skill. Studies show that children who practice empathy toward animals develop stronger...

Mirrors Of Kindness

Mirrors of Kindness: How Adult Role Models Shape Our Empathy Empathy isn’t just taught—it’s absorbed. The quiet way adults treated a crying child, a stray animal, or a struggling stranger imprinted on us forever. Children are empathy sponges. When a parent: - Stopped to help a turtle cross the road... - Spoke gently to a fearful dog... - Listened deeply to a lonely neighbor... ...they weren’t just being kind. They were modeling neural blueprints for compassion. Mirror neurons in our brains fire when we witness empathy, literally shaping how we relate to pain. But what if your models were flawed? The good news: Empathy is learnable at any age. Start by recalling one positive example: "My grandpop never passed a homeless person without offering food. He taught me: *Kindness requires action.* Identify one empathetic adult from your past. What did they mod...
