Bullying: A Handbook for Educators and Parents offers a
comprehensive exploration of the bullying within public schools,
drawing upon research conducted in the United States, United
Kingdom, Scandinavia, and Canada. It offers insights into the
immediate and long-term impact bullying can have upon the lives of
students, their families, and teachers. It offers parents useful
tips for working proactively with school administrators to resolve
bullying issues, and it provides teachers with materials that
facilitate a better understanding of the social dynamics of the
classroom, hallways, and playground. In addition, the handbook
offers administrators a quick, no-nonsense guide to recent state
and federal statutes, directives, and legislation relating to
bullying and antisocial behavior in grades K-12. The book is
divided into four sections providing a review of research on
bullying behavior and an understanding of the dynamics of the
classroom through the media of sexual bullying, homophobic
bullying, and the challenges faced by parents of students who have
special needs. Guidance is offered on the immediate and long-term
effects of bullying and ways in which parents can engage
proactively with schools to ensure that their child is supported in
finding a way out. Finally, the authors ask key questions that
parents and educators should consider when working to stop bullying
in schools.
