“It’s common for parents to feel powerless and frustrated when their kids are getting bullied. But often parents don’t know it’s happening. Parents play a vital role in supporting their kids, helping them be upstanders, and teaching and modeling empathy in the home and beyond. We’ve provided resources below to help you with these discussions and to empower you to stand up for your child effectively- when working with a school to resolve a bullying situation.”~ http://www.thebullyproject.com/parents
