Parents, we get it, sometimes it's hard to know what to do if you think your child is being bullied. Talk with your child and ask them what's been happening. Be empathetic and assure them that you're going to help.

When bystanders intervene, it can reduce instances of #bullying by more than 50%. One way a child can intervene is by reporting the bullying to a trusted adult. If a child reports bullying to you, believe them and tell them you'll take action.
