How To Handle Bullying In Child's Life

How To Handle Bullying In Child's Life

By Michelle Hussy


It is clear that, from studies that have done and news reports that have ran, that bullying is much more damaging to children than we ever thought. It is every parent's hope that their children will not experience bullying while growing up, even so this is not realistic as we all know. You should learn how to talk to your kids, look for signs of bullying, and help them as much as you can along the way.

Commonly, with the news of your child being bullied, the initial thought have a conference with the parents of the tormentor. These may seem like the responsible thing to do, it is not the wisest. Frequently, bullies have grown up in homes that are less than functional. These may not always be true, but it is a prevalent conduct for a bully to have raised with this philosophy. A lot of parents will automatically side with their juvenile no matter what the conditions. With this conclusion, think twice before considering this an option. If you need to speak to someone, speak to a school authority. The school can then get in touch with the parents of the kid causing the trouble.

In case they do get bullied, if you enroll them in some self-defense class, they will be prepared and ready for this situation. Putting them in such a class should be something they choose freely, and not something that forced upon them in any way. These isn't to encourage them to fight, but to make them confident enough that they won't be a target. For the most part, bullies are cowards that only pick on defenseless people, something your child will not be once they properly trained.

Kids are not always so forthcoming when it comes to discussing bullying with their parents. The bully may have told them to stay silent, or they might feel ashamed. These are why you need to keep an eye out that something is wrong with looking for warning signs. If your child does not want to go to school because of a physical illness. And it is an illness like a stomachache or a headache which is hard to verify, and then they may be attempting to avoid school for some other reason.

As a parent, you have an obligation to watch for evidence of bullying. Mostly because your children won't tell you if, it is happening in their lives. Just try to do your best to monitor your kids, especially where they are going on the Internet and who they may be talking. Once you figure out if your child is experiencing bullying, do your best to help them fix the situation and make them feel better.
