Hatred is a learned behavior and this can boil over into people being bullies to those who are  vulnerable. But, thankfully an awesome group of kids from a Mankato Minnesota Middle School show that kindness is also a learned behavior.

This is one of those stories that truly warms my heart, with all the bad news we are inundated with on a daily basis this is refreshing. One of the boys at the center of this story has learning disabilities and was bullied constantly, until a group of friends decided to ban together to not only protect him, but to welcome and include him as a friend.
