- A local Colorado native, Barbara Coloroso outlines the struggles children have today and offers solutions & strategies for the problem.
- This is an extremely helpful book that both parents and teachers can use to deal with bullying, an aspect of school that the author feels “is a life-and-death issue that we ignore at our children’s peril.”
- The book also provides excellent insights into behaviors related to but not always recognized as bullying, such as cliques, hazing, taunting and sexual bullying.
- This volume is perhaps best for its sections on the “bystander,” the person whose behavior is too often overlooked or excused.
Review
“It’s the deadliest combination going: bullies who terrorize, bullied kids who are afraid to tell, bystanders who watch, and adults who see the incidents as a normal part of childhood. All it takes to understand that this is a recipe for tragedy is a glance at headlines across the country. In this updated edition of “the bully, the bullied, and the bystander”, which includes a new section on cyberbullying, one of the world’s most trusted parenting educators gives parents, caregivers, educators—and most of all, kids—the tools to break the cycle of violence.”
“If you are a parent or teacher, you should read this book. (Education Today)
