National Day against Bullying 20th March
FAQ's: What can parents do if bullying happens? National Day against Bullying 20th March.
What can parents do if their child tells me they have been bullied?
There are six key steps for parents if their child tells them they have been bullied:
1. Listen calmly to what your child wants to say and make sure you get the full story.
2. Reassure your child that they are not to blame and ask open and empathetic questions to find out more details.
3. Ask your child what they want to do and what they want you to do.
4.Discuss with your child some sensible strategies to handle the bullying - starting a fight is not sensible.
5. Contact the school and stay in touch with them.
6. Check in regularly with your child.
Strategies that parents can suggest to their child who is being verbally or socially bullied?
The Bullying. No Way! website provides information aabout strategies that can help. These can be tried if the child feels safe:
1. Ignore them.
2. Tell them to stop and then walk away.
3. Pretend you dont care, try to act unaffected or umipressed.
4. Try to deflect the bullying (eg pertending to agree in an offhand way 'okay, yeah, maybe')
5. Go somewhere else.
6. Get support from your friends.
7. Talk to an adult at the school or at home who can help stop the bullying.
8. Keep asking for support until the bullying stops.
What strategies can parents suggest to their child who is being bullied online?
If bullying happens online, some of the strategies for face-to-face bullying may apply and as well, suggest that the child:
1. Avoid responding to the bullying.
2. Block and report anyone who is bullying online.
3. Protect yourself online - use privacy settings and keep records.
