It’s National Bullying Prevention Month! Bullying is when a child tries to hurt another child physically or emotionally. Kids who bully use their power (like being popular or physically strong) to control or hurt others. |

Start by talking with your child about bullying — before you see signs of a problem. Here are some things you can say. |
||||
“If someone is picking on you, we can figure out what to do together.” |
|||||||
“In our family, we believe that everyone deserves respect.” |
|||||||
“What would you do if you saw someone getting picked on?” |

Forward this email to other parents you know to help start a conversation about bullying. |
