The assumption is that the specific form of bullying dictates our response. And it doesn’t. Not really. Because they are all following the same dynamic and the protocol to get unwanted behavior – whatever it is and whatever we call it – to stop is the same.
Don’t allow managers who are afraid of false reports being levied against them stop you from taking this seriously.
One of the problems we have when addressing bullying in schools is that most anti-bullying programs focus on prevention only. Prevention is hugely important. But it’s an incomplete strategy. After all, prevention only helps kids who haven’t yet been bullied. We also need to help kids who are currently being bullied learn how to get it to stop. What we need is a more comprehensive approach.
