Why Kids Bully and How to Prevent Your Child From Becoming a Victim - Judy French

The Counter Culture Mom Show on Oneplace.com

Bullying is a form of hurt or harm that is inflicted upon a person who can’t get it to stop, because they don’t have as much power as the bully, says Judy French. Judy is the coordinator at PACER’s National Bullying Prevention Center in Los Angeles, California. She helps parents protect their children with sound advice and guidance and reminds them how important it is to work with the school district and respect school policies while simultaneously advocating for their children. Power struggles and structures at school are often hotbeds for bullying, and bullies themselves often push others around because of a lack of control in other areas of their lives. We really want to think about what are the foundational elements of a healthier community, Judy explains.
