Bully Blocking offers practical advice to help children (aged 4 - 16) deal with bullies who tease, exclude, intimidate or harass. In this book renowned bullying specialist Evelyn Field provides parents and teachers with understandings and tested approaches to assist a child who is a target or a bully.
Importantly, this book shows how the attitudes of both bullies and their targets can be transformed to ensure that their self-destructive behaviour does not carry on into the future. The Six Secrets of Relating, the core of the book, show children how to:
-
Understand their feelings
-
Realise why they are being bullied or teased (or why they bully others)
-
Build their self-esteem
-
Become confident communicators
-
Create a 'power pack' of helpful skills
-
Develop a support network.
Bully Blocking, a fully revised edition of the highly successful Bullybusting, includes a chapter on what schools can do about bullying and a supplement to help teachers apply the book's practical exercises and activities in the classroom.
Evelyn Field is a counselling psychologist in Melbourne who has been working with children and adults since the 1970s. As a former school-based psychologist, and now in private practice, she has worked extensively with young people who have been teased, bullied or victimised.
