You Are More Powerful Than You Think

You need to remind your kids every day that they are more powerful
than they think. The effects of bullying leave kids feeling
confused, helpless, and vulnerable. Aside from teaching your kids how to be
assertive, you also need to build their self-confidence and help them improve
their social skills. Let them know there are proactive actions against
bullying, and no one should intimidate them.
Eleanor Roosevelt once said, “No one can make you feel
inferior without your consent.”
Use these tips to train your kids:
1. Ignore…
There is no need to care so much about people who doubt you or try
to intimidate you. Not reacting when someone does something hurtful is an
effective response to bullying. Teach your kids to ignore and keep their head
high when someone tries to bully them.
2. They should stand up for themselves…
Do you know some bullies look for victims that will not say
anything at all? But if your kid is assertive, strong, and confident, no bully
will walk over them.
3. Avoid hotspots…
At times, all it takes to overcome bullying is to
stay away from places where bullies hang out. The hotspots include locker
rooms, vacant hallways, bathrooms, and back of the bus.
4. Report to an adult…
Kids are vulnerable, and they keep quiet when things like this
happen. Be open with your kids. Understand their fears and let them know you
have their best interests at heart.
The greatest gift a parent can give their children is to empower
them and foster core values like respect, kindness, compassion, and self-worth.
