How To Protect Your Child From Bullying At School

Talking through specific scripts is a great way to empower your child to stand up for herself. For example, you can teach her to say something simple like, "I don't like that," or "Leave me alone," when someone is treating her unkindly. Using a strong voice is also key and should be practiced. Most bullies are looking for signs of weakness.
