Box 5513 Richmond, Virginia 23220-0513 Many people ask what is B.A.D.D., INC. B.A.D.D. stands for Bothered About D & D and other harmful influences on children. We are an organization dedicated to educating the public on the harmful effects of entertainment violence which is occuring and growing in our society. We are concerned with violent forms of entertainment such as: violent-occult related rock music, role- playing games that utilize occult mythology and the worship of occult gods in role playing situations like Dungeons & Dragons (R), teen satanism involving murder and suicide, and pornography as it is affecting adolescent behavior and reshaping attitudes and values in a negative manner. Our hopes are to be influential in the restoration of respect for human life. The group was founded in 1983 by Patricia Pulling of Richmond, Virginia. Patricia lost a 16 year old son to suicide which was directly related to the game of Dungeons & Dragons (R). B.A.D.D was incorporated in 1984 and enjoys tax exempt status (509) (a) (1) & 170 (b) (1) (A) (vi). We are strictly voluntary with no paid staff and we are totally funded by private donations. B.A.D.D serves the informational needs of people nationwide. We supply law enforcement, schools, churches, doctors, lawyers, psychiatrists, social workers and people from all walks of life. We have done hundreds of media presentations ranging from "60 Minutes" to Pat Robertson's "700 Club", including The Chicago Tribune, USA Today, Newsweek, and many many more. We have even given media presentations for Canada, Australia, and England. We give seminars and lectures all over the country. B.A.D.D also acts as a referral system for people who need help regarding entertainment violence issues. We believe that the problem is not only a lack of information but many times mis- information. We feel that if we all work together we can improve our society for our children. "All that is necessary for evil to triumph is for good men to do nothing."
