The strongest deterrent for bullying behavior is confidence. The trick is you don't have to FEEL confident to LOOK confident. Help your child practice standing up strong and setting boundaries with a strong loud voice ("Leave me alone!" "Go away!") #KidsSafety#chicago
Talk with the kids in your life about boundaries. When they learn to practice setting boundaries early with the people in their life ("I don't want a hug right now" or "Don't touch my stuff without asking"), they learn to advocate for themselves. #KidsSafety#chicago
The single most effective intervention against childhood bulling is: peer intervention. Talk to the kids in your life today. Help them practice standing up for others. #KidsSafety#everydaysafety#chicago
