How You Can Help Prevent Bullying.

Learn how to recognize bullying: Educate yourself on how to recognize the signs of bullying and what you can do to prevent kids from being bullied. Learn to tell the difference between bullying and harmless childhood play.
Help educate others: Spread the word by talking to the people in your community who have the power to put an end to bullying. Here are a few groups you may want to visit or call:
Your family: If you have kids, teach them that bullying is wrong. Print out the following brochures that let them know what they should do if they are being bullied or if they see someone else being bullied. Let them know that they can always come to you for help.
Your friends and neighbors: Take a few minutes to share this bullying information with people in your neighborhood. There are several ways that people who work with children outside of school or any adult can help put an end to bullying.
Your local schools: Stop Bullying Now has a wealth of free anti-bullying material aimed at helping teachers, school administrators, and students recognize and prevent school bullying. Print some of the school bullying articles and give them to your local school district or email officials the link. You may also want to suggest that school children take the Anti-bullying Pledge from Bullying.org and that schools institute an anonymous bully reporting program such as Bully Stoppers.
Stop bullying when you see it: By now, you know what to do. The next time you see an innocent child being victimized by a bully, don't let the abuse continue. Your actions to stop bullying will help victimized children have hope again and will pave the way for others to stop letting senseless bullying harm young lives.
