Bullying has been in the news a lot lately. This is a very serious issue!
When teasing becomes hurtful, unkind, and constant, it crosses the line and needs to stop! It can range from hitting, shoving, name-calling, threats, and mocking, to extorting money and treasured possessions. Shunning and spreading rumors are forms of bullying.
The effects can be serious and have even led to tragedies, such as school shootings and suicides.
Teach your kids the following:
* Do not become angry.
* Walk away and ignore the bully
* Do NOT get physical
* Talk about it....teacher, parent, friend
* Practice feeling good about yourself
* Gain confidence and take charge of YOUR life
* Find some true friends and confide in them
* Exercise to feel strong and powerful
Always caring for kids,
