Helpful strategies on what to do when a child is the victim, the bully, or the bystander.

This book shatters popular myths about bullying to reveal its stark realities. You'll learn who is playing the intimidation game and how they play it - from social exclusion and physical violence to emotional backstabbing, sexual sleaze and cyberspace cruelty. But No Room for Bullies takes you beyond problem recognition to proven solutions.
Parents will find how to advocate for a child and work with the school when bullying is a problem, along with a safe Internet-Surfing Contract for kids that lays down the law on Internet use at home, and helpful strategies on what to do when a child acts like a bully, is a victim, or suffers from bystander silence.
School Administrators will benefit from the suggestions given on how to measure the social climate of schools, including sample surveys to give to students, staff, and parents. A 12-point checklist on preventing problems in hallways, classrooms, and common areas is also included.
Teachers will gain advice for creating and enforcing classroom rules, including an Airport Rule that gives students a sense of safety and become aware of some ideas to minimize the chaos that occurs during passing periods and in unowned areas like restrooms and hallways.
The contributing authors include child psychologists, parent trainers, and teachers. Drawing on their years of experience, they tackle bullying from all the angles: the bully, the victim, the bystander, the teacher, the parent, and the environment.
