Whether a bully, a target or a witness, children are being confronted with this problem all too often. This workshop will help parents understand bullying and why it happens, be able to recognize the signs in children’s behavior, and how to deal with it. Discussion will include how the brain influences the incidence of bullying and how positive self-esteem helps to mitigate its effect on children.
