If your child is being bullied at school

[Daisy Hastings]

We are talking about children of primary school age, because the ability to fend for themselves, strengthening of self-confidence and communication skills is laid at this age. If to "break" the child during this period - later it will be very difficult "to straighten", and sometimes just impossible.

Therefore, at this time the important role will play the parents, their reaction and support.
Parents should not neglect the situation when the child being bullied in school. Especially if their child is soft in nature, inclined to creativity and his nature is not aggressive, and communication skills enabling to establish contact with the children of a certain range is missing (aggressive , constrained kind of "bully" - it's not their fault, it's an example of their parents).

You can not blame the child and make him "to be firmer, more crudely, to hit back and not allow the descent." You can not force the child to act boldly, if he is already afraid, if he is already uncomfortable in the presence of the offenders. "Go meet your fear" - it just sounds beautiful, as advice, but not easy to implement. Especially if the child has no feeling of the powerful family rears behind him, security, faith in real support.

It is not shameful to act as a defender to your child. Do not be afraid that he will consider a sneak, a weakling, hiding behind a parent back, at this age it is not happening. But aggressive children already at this age are afraid of superior powers, tell kid you will custom essay writer to his or her parents, or will talk to them personally, so they will accept a conversation with the parents of the child they hurt and will take note.

But strongly punish bullies (and threaten them) in a school for teachers is fraught with in our time with accusations in violence against children from his side. Because teachers prefer to be away , and hide behind indifference. Therefore, the protection of children - business of parents themselves and no one else, even better - to bypass teachers.
