BULLYING INS OO) LSe« WHAT IF MY CHILD IS BULLYING OTHERS? If you suspect your child is bullying, it's important to act early as this can often stem from insecurity, stress, or emotional struggles. As Phil points out, “A bully needs to learn empathy and understand others’ feelings.” Parents can help by fostering open communication and encouraging their child to express their emotions. STEPS TO STOP YOUR CHILD FROM BULLYING INCLUDE: + Creating an open dialogue: Have a calm, non-judgmental conversation to uncover the root of the behaviour and offer healthier coping strategies. + Clarifying expectations: Clearly explain what bullying is and why it's unacceptable. + Addressing incidents directly: Discuss each situation calmly to help them understand the harm caused. + Setting firm boundaries: Reinforce that bullying won't be tolerated and monitor their behaviour closely. + Collaborating: Work with the school or relevant organisations to address the issue together. Ultimately, raising compassionate and assertive kids who can handle peer challenges starts with the values we nurture at home. By teaching respect, empathy, and resilience, we equip them to stand up for themselves and others and encourage positive behaviour. Thus, by addressing bullying within our own sphere of influence, we can help build a community grounded in kindness, strength and compassion. « —— Sources: Marion Scher - author of Big Bully: An Epidemic of (Published by n) / Phil Ke Coach & Founder of ning (www. 7 www.stopbullying.gov / www:thecitizen.co.za / i www.nichd. / www.cde.gov / www.educ: .gov.za / www.unicef.org / www.understood.org / n.net.au
