Help Stop Bullying!

Many children have experienced bullying and it is important to teach our children to stand up for their self. We should teach our children that it’s ok to say no to something that they don't like. We should help them understand that they have rights as a person, no matter how small a person they are. We should teach our children to not be afraid of others just because that person is bigger.
  A great way to teach children this is, through role play. What I do with my children is practice different behaviors that are undesirable and teach them the correct way to deal with the problem. This technique really works, and can be used any time you want your child to behave in a certain manner. For example, before you go to shopping, you can have your children prentice the correct way to act in the store, that they will know what it is expected of them.
