By Cynthia Kennedy


Unless you are vigilant enough, you may not be able to notice all the hounding that goes on in schools. This act has established its roots in high schools over the years. What has made it even worse is the fact that no one really cares so much to stop or at least prevent this from occurring over and over. However, it is important to be equipped with the know-how of how to handle situations of bullying without creating more friction to it. Here are a number of effective ways on how to stop bullying.

In the event where you point out a victimization problem, there is need to give the matter strict attention. There are some strange things that you may observe on a child that may suggest he is being bullied. Such signs may include marks that cannot be explained and also change in eating habits. However, it may be a bit hard to notice these things if you do not spend enough time with the children.
Moreover, since you are responsible for stopping any child from intimidating another, there is need of being vigilant and avoid ignorance by all means. At no point in time should you assume that a particular act was just meant to tease the victim. This is so since different people have varied views on different matters. What might seem as a joke to one student might be emotionally hurting to another student.

Moreover, as a parent, knowing that it is your responsibility to protect your child or any other child from being bullied. Try as much as possible to address any kind of behavior that poses to be questionable. By noticing such acts, you definitely are on the right path to preventing any unorthodox behavior from occurring or rather reoccurring.

This will give you a chance to make sure both the involved parties are safe and unhurt. Later, explain to them why it was not worth it to argue or rather fight each other. It is okay if you try to reconcile themselves.

Another effective method to use in order to stop harassment of students is by dealing with the bullies themselves on an individual level. While doing this, ensure that each student explain parts of their story. While doing this, try to make sure they do not talk to each other since they may reignite the problem.

After you have intervened and talked to both the bully and the victim, go ahead and invite a specialist over. This specialist should talk and guide these students. Hiring one is more important than handling the entire task by yourself since you are not equipped with the required skills.

As a teacher, you still have the choice if undergoing training to become able to handle situations of bullying. After acquiring the necessary training, you shall be in a position to handle a number of different bulling situations. You may even go further and create a bully free program.
