A Good and Practical Resource August 19, 2008 Bullying is such an important issue that needs to be addressed by every school, teacher and parent.This approach is an excellent one- when children respect and empathize with each other bullying does not occur. However, the most comprehensive book on the subject for schools, teachers and parents of kids ages 3 - 15 is Bully-Proofing Children: A Practical, Hands-On Guide to Stop Bullying. It outlines not only activities and lessons but puts forth a wonderful description on how to build a bully-free environment in school and at home. Intervention and proactive techniques are included.
