Your child can\u2019t stand up to bullies if they\u2019re unable to identify it when it happens. Don\u2019t forget to tell them to trust their gut\u2014a lot of bullying is subtle. If they get a feeling that something isn\u2019t quite right, they should come to you to determine next steps.<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-ccp-props=\"{}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">TIP: Teaching your child about the dangers of gossip is always a good idea.\u00a0<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-ccp-props=\"{}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b><span data-contrast=\"auto\">Avoid sentiments that excuse the bully<\/span><\/b><span data-ccp-props=\"{}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">Many of us heard these growing up. While statements like, \u201che\u2019s teasing you because he likes you,\u201d are well-intended, all they really do is excuse the behavior away. Instead, discuss with your child that <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/bullyingfree.nz\/about-bullying\/why-does-bullying-happen\/\"><span data-contrast=\"none\">kids bully for all kinds of reasons<\/span><\/a><span data-contrast=\"none\">\u2014<\/span><span data-contrast=\"auto\">trouble at home, low self-esteem, a desire to be popular, etc..\u00a0<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{}\"> Remember that when you excuse away bullying, it invalidates your child&#8217;s feelings should they start getting bullied, and makes it easier for your child to justify mistreatment of their peers. This can manifest in either them becoming a bully themselves, or not getting involved when they see it happen to someone else.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-ccp-props=\"{}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b><span data-contrast=\"auto\">Demonstrate conflict resolution as a family<\/span><\/b><span data-ccp-props=\"{}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">Arguing with a sibling is common. If your children are fighting, keep an ear out for name-calling and mean, unproductive language. Take that time as a learning opportunity to demonstrate how you resolve conflict in a healthy way. If they don\u2019t have a sibling, model good conflict resolution with other members of the family. It could be as simple as deciding what to have for dinner together and being mindful when people are craving different things. Children mirror the behaviors they see at home! <\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-ccp-props=\"{}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">TIP: It <\/span><i><span data-contrast=\"auto\">does <\/span><\/i><span data-contrast=\"auto\">matter who started it. Listen to the events that led up to the fight and act accordingly. Treating both parties as equally guilty will only tell the victim that reporting an incident will get them in trouble too.\u00a0<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-ccp-props=\"{}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b><span data-contrast=\"auto\">Normalize talking about feelings<\/span><\/b><span data-ccp-props=\"{}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">While this is a bit of a side-step, it can really come in handy if your child becomes the victim of a bully. Keeping an open dialogue about thoughts and feelings will establish trust, and your child will be more likely to come forward if something happens at school. Some kids are shy and have a difficult time talking about their feelings, so don\u2019t be afraid to demonstrate this behavior yourself. While you talk about their day at school, talk about your day at work! For example, you can tell them about how your workload was stressful, but you took a break to clear your mind and come back more organized. Trust is a two-way street!\u00a0<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-ccp-props=\"{}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b><span data-contrast=\"auto\">Instill your child with confidence<\/span><\/b><span data-ccp-props=\"{}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">Studies show that <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.teacherlists.com\/blog\/positive-affirmations-for-children\/\"><span data-contrast=\"none\">children with high self-esteem<\/span><\/a><span data-contrast=\"auto\"> are less likely to bully others. Further, mean comments from other students are less likely to have a major impact on them too.\u00a0<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-ccp-props=\"{}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b><span data-contrast=\"auto\">Emphasize the positive\u00a0<\/span><\/b><span data-ccp-props=\"{}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">In most cases, kids want to be validated more than anything else. Tell them you\u2019re proud of them when they demonstrate kind behavior, like going out of their way to include someone who is playing alone. They\u2019ll seek out that positive reinforcement and keep engaging in kind behavior to get it. <\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-ccp-props=\"{}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b><span data-contrast=\"auto\">Use their favorite show to discuss complicated situations<\/span><\/b><span data-ccp-props=\"{}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">After watching TV with your child, take a moment to ask them questions that will help build their empathy and understanding. Ask how they think certain characters felt in certain situations, and what they would do if one of their friends felt that way. Talk directly about bullying after episodes that revolve around the topic.\u00a0<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>Help them identify trusted adults<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Most bullying happens at school, outside the view of teachers. Think: the playground, the lunchroom, and in small groups while the teacher&#8217;s attention is elsewhere. When talking about bullying with your child, ask them which adults at school they trust, and make a game plan for who they&#8217;ll go to if they see bad behavior. Then, carry this over to adults in your neighborhood, family, etc..<\/p>\n<p><span data-ccp-props=\"{}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h4><b><span data-contrast=\"auto\">Middle School:<\/span><\/b><span data-ccp-props=\"{}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/h4>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><b><span data-contrast=\"auto\">Focus on the screens<\/span><\/b><span data-ccp-props=\"{}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">At this stage, your child is probably online in one way or another. Teach them about <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.teacherlists.com\/blog\/parent-corner\/screen-time-good-bad-balance\/\"><span data-contrast=\"none\">digital citizenship<\/span><\/a><span data-contrast=\"auto\">, how to report cyberbullying when they see it, and what is appropriate to post on social media.\u00a0<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-ccp-props=\"{}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b><span data-contrast=\"auto\">Develop a supervision plan<\/span><\/b><span data-ccp-props=\"{}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">There are a lot of conflicting opinions on whether a parent should go through their child&#8217;s phone or not. At the end of the day, it mostly depends on your relationship with your child. Sit down with your pre-teen and determine the best course of action when it comes to supervision. Maybe you agree that you must follow them on every social media platform, or maybe you have their account passwords as a deterrent for bad behavior. Our advice though, do not go through their phone as punishment or in secret\u2014this can cause a major rift in their trust in you. <\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-ccp-props=\"{}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b><span data-contrast=\"auto\">Discuss expectations before you drop them off<\/span><\/b><span data-ccp-props=\"{}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">You knew it was going to happen one day, but you didn\u2019t think it\u2019d come so soon\u2014they\u2019re going to the movies with friends and you\u2019re just dropping them off. It\u2019s scary for them and for you! Before you drop them off, go over expectations of their behavior.

Talk to your teenager about your expectations for involvement\u2014obviously no one wants their kid coming home with a bloody nose.
