Why and How to Stop the Bullying?

 
 

If you are in any way suspicious that your child is a bully, you need to begin taking the right steps so that they realize the harm that they are causing and stop the bullying. If you don!|t stop it, your child may grow up to become an adult bullying because they have seen that they can achieve power this way and enjoy intimidating others. For many children (both the bully and the victim), bullying can have extremely serious results. It has been proven that those children who bully are more likely to experiment with drugs and crime as they get older. They are also more likely to have bad interpersonal relationships with others. This is just the damage it will do to your child !V it does not even take into account the damage done to the victim.  

If you do suspect that you child is a bully, you should ask some questions and watch out for certain behavior. This way you will be able to judge for yourself and determine whether or not they are. If you are aware of your child showing repeated aggressive tendencies towards other children such as hitting or pushing, this is a strong indication that they are a bully. Also, if your child gangs up with his friends to hurt another child, this is another warning sign.

Stop the BullyingHave you ever seen your child spreading malicious rumors about another child, either when just talking to friends or in general with a lot of other children? This is especially true of female bullies. Emotional bullying is just as problematic and needs to be dealt with immediately. Bullies will often leave friends out on purpose to show that they have power. So be on the look out for this.

Of course, good natured teasing and rifts among friends happen while children are growing up, but there are clear indications of bullies and behavior such as that above which occurs on a regular basis needs to be dealt with. It is common for childhood bullies not to understand how serious their actions are and the effect on people!|s lives they can have. As a parent, you need to guide your child and explain that it is simply not acceptable behavior.

If you have seen that friends of your child often get involved in bully-like behavior, it does not necessarily mean that your child is a bully !V they may just be overwhelmed by peer pressure. You need to sit your child down and explain that they are not good friends and they need to choose other friends because what they do is wrong. If your child is not a bully, they will understand what you are saying.
