Discuss ways to respond to bullying
Bullying can damage children physically and emotionally. It can also affect their ability to do well in school. If your child is being picked on, make it clear that it is not your child's fault. Then, talk about things students can do to stop it, such as ignoring the bully and walking away. Carefully monitor the situation, and if the bullying continues or gets worse, take action: Talk to the school principal or counselor and work together to resolve the issue.
