Featuring example scenarios and exercises, equips educators and parents with eight strategies for addressing the issue of bullying in schools and online, and discusses the psychology behind why children bully. - Book News
Whitson, a social worker, author, and educator who presents workshops on bullying and anger in kids, identifies eight strategies for ending bullying: recognizing it, establishing connections with kids, stopping it, dealing directly with cyberbullying, building social and emotional competence, turning bystanders into buddies, reaching out to kids who bully, and keeping the conversation going. She provides research on bullying, practical guidance on how to manage specific aspects, sample phrases and conversations, and anecdotes. She describes what bullying is and differences from other behavior, methods of bullying, the characteristics of bullies and victims, reasons it occurs, and the responsibility to stop it, then how to get kids to talk about it, respond to adults who dismiss it, and take parents' reports seriously; stop it through increasing the presence of adults, creating a positive school climate and classroom culture, and intervening on the spot; teach online safety; use social and emotional learning programming and bullying prevention programs; and create buddy programs.
