9. SPEND TIME AT
SCHOOL.
When a lot of parents are committed to
bullying prevention, a school’s program will
be more successful. Form a group of motivated parents to help you tackle the issue.
Meet regularly to brainstorm ideas. Then,
share your ideas with the appropriate school
officials and offer to help implement the
ideas.
Accept opportunities to volunteer at
school functions and during the day if your
schedule permits. With shrinking budgets,
schools have been forced to downsize. As a
result, your kids may be getting less supervision on the playgrounds and during lunch.
Sometimes simply having an additional adult
around is enough to deter bullying.

8. RECRUIT OTHER
PARENTS.
10. ASK THE PTA/PTO
TO SPONSOR A BULLYING
PREVENTION PROGRAM.
If your school has limited funds for bullying programs, approach your school’s PTA/
PTO and ask for their assistance. Or, suggest
a fundraiser to build awareness. Remember,
bullying is not a normal part of childhood.
Bullying affects everyone. But as a parent,
you have the power to do something about it.
