Most people don’t understand ET when people’s hands, head, legs, voice, tremor, and shaking. It brings on bullying at school, work, restaurants, and businesses because of ignorance. Many people assume you are on drugs or not very smart if you have tremors.
Respect refers to accepting someone different from you in thoughts, disabilities, skin color, race, nationality, and age. To be considerate, show kindness, and recognize that everyone is different.
Children of all ages, from very young to college, are not only bullied by their peers but also by teachers and principals. It isn’t because the teachers and principals are cruel, but because of a lack of knowledge.
DSF is working with our Children's Educational Initiative, which includes educating our school systems about Essential Tremor and ET bullying.
We are working with legislators and educators on a pilot program to inform principals, teachers, and school nurses about essential tremors.
Our goal is to help them identify the symptoms of ET in children in their classrooms.

Take the time to talk with your children about bullying or participate in anti-bullying programs that might exist at their neighborhood schools. Please take time to think and deal with workplace bullying as well. |
Tremors are not the result of a lack of intelligence. In fact, some of the most brilliant minds, Katherine Hepburn, Lord Julian Fellowes, playwright Eugene O'Neill, Samuel Adams, West Virginia Senator Robert Byrd, and Supreme Court Justice Sandra Day O'Connor, are individuals who were diagnosed with Essential Tremor.
