CAN LOOK FOR THAT THEIR CHILD IS A BULLY. SOME OF
THOSE SIGNS INCLUDE - FAILURE TO TAKE RESPONSIBILITY FOR THEIR OWN
ACTIONS. - FREQUENTLY GETTING INTO VERBAL AND PHYSICAL
ALTERCATIONS. - BEING DISCIPLINED AT SCHOOL ON A REGULAR BASIS.
- INCREASED CONCERN ABOUT THEIR REPUTATION OR BEING
A PART OF THE IN CROWD. - HAVING EXTRA MONEY OR NEW BELONGINGS WITHOUT
BEING ABLE TO EXPLAIN HOW THEY GOT THEM.
8How can a bully be stopped?
SCHOOLS CAN STOP BULLYING BY CREATING A CULTURE
OF TOLERANCE AND MAKING IT CLEAR THAT BULLYING
BEHAVIORS ARE UNACCEPTABLE. SCHOOLS CAN IMPLEMENT
RULES THAT STRESS TREATING PEERS AND ADULTS WITH
RESPECT, AND ESTABLISH CONSEQUENCES FOR THOSE WHO
ENGAGE IN BULLYING. ALSO, SETTING UP A SYSTEM FOR
REPORTING BULLYING MAKES IT EASIER FOR VICTIMS
AND WITNESSES TO DO SOMETHING ABOUT THE BULLIES
IN THEIR SCHOOL.
