Parents, if you were never taught how exactly to get a bully to stop, please learn it. There is a science to it. Yes, an actual science. It’s called behavioral psychology and there is 70+ years of research into the subject.
If you are a teacher of children, you need to learn how to get bullies to stop. You need to learn what exactly has to happen so that you can do it. Clearly, winging it, hoping for the best, providing consequences and meaning well aren’t enough.
if you are a lawyer who deals in bullying, harassment & discrimination cases, you should understand HOW exactly these behaviors can be stopped.
Most humans, including bullies, have a vision of themselves. If you are relatively healthy, you will think you are moral, for the most part, and that when someone is rude to you, they are at fault. But how do you know if you aren’t the problem?
