What Can Adults Do?
Welcome to the Take a Stand. Lend a Hand. Stop Bullying Now! adult pages. As an adult, one of best ways you can help stop or prevent bullying is to be educated about, and sensitive to, the issue. Bullying is NOT a rite of passage – an undesirable, but sometimes unavoidable, reality of growing up. Rather, bullying is a serious public health issue that affects countless young people everyday. Further, research shows that the effects of bullying can last well into adulthood. Whether you are a concerned parent, an educator or school employee, a health and safety professional, or someone else who works with children, there are many things you can do to help.
I also highly recommend you read Grumble Bluff by Karen Bessey Pease. This book deals with two innocent girls, one a bit overweight and another that suffers with a father dying of Aids. This story will make you laugh, cry and understand how bullying can really affect a child’s self image. I totally enjoyed this book.
