Books : The Bully, the Bullied, and the Bystander: From Preschool to High School--How Parents and Teachers Can Help Break the Cycle of Violence |
- Some Good Tips But Needs UpdatingThis is a generally good intro to bullying but for more updated information and deeper emphasis on strategies,tips and practical solutions to use in the home and school I would recommend Bully-Proofing Children: A Practical, Hands-On Guide to Stop Bullying.
Rating:
- A Great Book for Everyone!Bullying is a problem that involves all of us and there is something in this book for each of us. Whether we are a parent, a teacher, a student, or whatever--Coloroso's book gives us much food for thought. The role of the bystander is indeed a crucial role as the bystander can unintentionally (or perhaps sometimes intentionally) facilitate the bullying situation. Highly Recommended!

- Every Parent Needs to Read a Book on BullyingBullying is so rampant that I think every parent should understand this phenomenon. I read this book over 3 years ago and it was very helpful. Another book,I recommend, Bully-Proofing Children: A Practical, Hands-On Guide to Stop Bullyingwritten by a school counselor and teacher is even more up-to-date with stats and an outstanding chapter on cyberbulling and how to deal with it. It is packed with practical strategies, stories and tips to be proactive and intervene. I hope every teacher and parent reads it. We need to spread the word so our kids don't become victims.

- An excellent treatment of a timeless topic.This book is very useful in dealing with the bully in the school. This is truly a life and death issue. It's application however goes beyond the the schools.It is always applies to the work place,business,the church,the internet, the funeral arrangement conference, national politics,and international relations. Chapter seven "Is there a bullied kid in the house applies" to all these environments.
She points out that the roots of bullying are in the home. Chapter Five is excellent in revealing three types of families and how it relates to bullying.She is particularly bold in describing sexual bullying and it's
relationship to sexual harassment. Her treatment of telling and tattling can be applied not just to the schoolyard, but to any type of whistle blowing. Five stars! Excellent job on a timeless subject.
Rating:
- Useful manual on an important topicColoroso breaks ground by discussing not just the bully and the bullied (who may be one and the same), but also the bystander, who plays a surprisingly important role in youthful bullying. The book is a little repetitive and simplistic, but overall it's an accessible treatise on an important topic.
