Work with school officials to make sure that your child is safe and that the bully receives consequences for his actions. Suggest that the school implement a comprehensive anti-bullying program. Strengthening your child's peer relationships will also help. If your child lacks friends, arrange for him to participate in positive social groups. In recent years, the behavior of both bullies and victims has become more intense.
Some victims even begin to think that suicide is the only way to escape their bully.
By being aware of changes in your child's behavior, you can help him deal with bully issues in a positive way and head off any future problems.
