#119: Step By Step - What To Do When Your Teen or Tween Is Bullied At School

119

When someone hurts your child, physically or emotionally, no matter if they're 10 or 25, you want it to stop immediately.
And bullying is one of those things you may not even be aware of.  You won't see it and you won't likely even know about it unless your teen or tween tells you.

In this episode, I'll tell you what to watch out for, how to talk to your teen about their bullying problem and give you step by step instructions for dealing with the issue.
