Description of technique:
Child should tell the teacher, then come home and tell Mom or Dad. If you have a counselor at school, tell them. Try to find a friend in class.

Mom must go to school, and don't wait. Principal must be informed. Mom, ask for a meeting if you can, with both parents. I couldn't.

Try to have someone pick the child up and bring in. No bus if that's where the trouble is. Sit in the front of bus if you have no choice.

You can let them try to handle it as children, but children cannot handle violence, especially every day.

Ask for results from school. Next step is police, newspaper, lawyer.

Build confidence, let your children be in situations with you around, having fun with children other than the bully.

They get very depressed. Moms, don't stop till you drop, over and over think of how we react to abusers. It doesnt make difference, 5 or 50. This is violence and violence can hurt, kill, damage oneself forever. DOWN WITH THE BULLIES. HELP OUR CHILDREN BY ZERO ZERO ZERO ZERO TOLERANCE.

Age group this technique is effective for:
Elementary School
