Almost all kids see bullying happen at some point. They may not be getting bullied nor the ones doing the bullying, but witnesses are just as important. Their reactions can have a direct impact on the situation.โฃ
โฃ
A bystander to bullying is anyone who witnesses bullying. Whether itโs in person, or in digital forms such as: social media, websites, text messages, gaming, and apps.โฃ ๐ฒ
โฃ
When bullying occurs, bystanders are present 80% of the time. Even just one bystander has the potential to make a positive difference in a bullying situation; particularly for the child who is being bullied. โฃ
โฃ
When those that are bullied are defended and supported by their peers, they are less anxious and depressed. ๐๐ฉ๐ฆ๐ฏ ๐ฃ๐บ๐ด๐ต๐ข๐ฏ๐ฅ๐ฆ๐ณ๐ด ๐ต๐ฐ ๐ฃ๐ถ๐ญ๐ญ๐บ๐ช๐ฏ๐จ ๐ช๐ฏ๐ต๐ฆ๐ณ๐ท๐ฆ๐ฏ๐ฆ, ๐ฃ๐ถ๐ญ๐ญ๐บ๐ช๐ฏ๐จ ๐ด๐ต๐ฐ๐ฑ๐ด ๐ธ๐ช๐ต๐ฉ๐ช๐ฏ ๐ท๐ถ ๐ด๐ฆ๐ค๐ฐ๐ฏ๐ฅ๐ด, ๐ป๐ฝ% ๐ฐ๐ง ๐ต๐ฉ๐ฆ ๐ต๐ช๐ฎ๐ฆ.โฃ

Parents, have you instilled the courage into your children to stand up to bullying, to be that one bystander who speaks up? ๐ฃ Let’s make it a goal to raise up our children to be brave in moments of adversity!
