Summary
Bullying used to be thought of as an unpleasant rite of passage, but now psychologists are realizing that it inflicts real harm. As many as 40 percent of children report that they've experienced episodes of bullying at school or online through their school community.

From his many decades as a Board of Education insider, he argues that schools are self-protective entities and reluctant to address bullying themselves.The Bully Action Guideshows parents how to: discuss bullying with their child efficiently address individual needs with teachers take effective action to stop the bullying
