Know Your State Legal Rules on Bullying
Almost all American states currently have bullying laws aiming to build a safer environment for students. Everybody, including teachers, parents and the general public, should be familiar with their state rules and regulations on anti bullying programs, then only they can prevent it. Here are some best ways to promote bullying prevention strategies:
A Friendly School Environment: Addressing a bullying problem requires change. School authorities should come up with an effective plan to prevent bullying by establishing and enforcing strict rules and policies against it.
Educate Kids: Parents, school staff, and other adults in the community can help kids by explaining the harmfulness of bullying, the rules and regulations prescribed by the Federal Government and the importance of preventing and stopping it. Be a positive role model and teach your child good social behavior from an early age.
Communication: Communication is the key to putting a stop to bullying. Encourage kids to speak to an adult if they are bullied or see someone else being bullied. Especially in schools - the school management needs to have an adequate reporting system.
Gather Knowledge About Cyber-bullying: With the advanced technology, cyber-bullying has become increasingly common. The best way to protect young people is by teaching them how to use the Internet in a safe and responsible manner.
