Did you know Second Step Programs align with existing frameworks (like PBIS) to strengthen human skills instruction and positive behavior supports?
We understand how difficult it is when your child is dealing with bullying, and sometimes, they might not even tell you what's happening.
Here are a few actionable ways you can support your child:
• Talk and listen openly: Create a safe space for your child to share what they're going through, and truly listen to their experiences.
• Be empathetic and reassuring: Let them know it's not their fault and that you're there to help them every step of the way.
• Guide their responses: Help them understand what actions might make the situation worse and encourage constructive ways to handle it.
• Be persistent: Bullying is a complex issue, and it often requires ongoing effort to resolve. Stick with them and continue to advocate on their behalf.
• Engage with their school or organization: Communicate with the adults in charge where the bullying is happening and follow up consistently until appropriate action is taken.
Bullying is never okay, and while it's a difficult challenge, we hope these tips help you and your child navigate it more effectively.
