Bully Games:
8 strategies to BULLYPROOF your kid
Preface
Why did I write this handbook? This handbook is designed to coach parents on the ways they can reduce the likelihood that their kids will become a target of bullying. While it is likely that your child will become a target at one point in his/her childhood; using these 8 BULLYPROOF strategies will prevent him/her from becoming a victim.
My career has been dedicated to the fields of education and non-profit management. As the School Program Director for an Arizona non-profit, I created many bullying prevention presentations and programs.
Most recently, I developed a bullying diversion program to which students are referred for an aggressive or anti-social infraction; parents and students must attend the program together in order to reduce a suspension or re-enter school. In these classes I have worked with many bullying offenders, victims, and their parents. I am as much a student of bullying prevention as an expert. I continue to read as much as I can and I listen to the kids and parents that come through my programs. They have taught me a great deal.
Throughout this handbook you will receive 8 practical strategies
