About this item
An international bestseller, Barbara Coloroso's groundbreaking and trusted guide on bullying - including cyberbullying - arms parents and teachers with real solutions for a problem that affects almost all school age kids."An extremely helpful book that both parents and teachers can use to deal with bullying." - Publishers WeeklyFirst published over a decade ago, The Bully, the Bullied and the Bystander quickly became the definitive guide to bullying prevention and intervention, providing real solutions for a problem that affects young people all over the world. Now, in this thoroughly updated and expanded book, Coloroso helps you recognize the characteristic triad of bullying: the bully who perpetrates the harm; the bullied, who is the target (and who may become a bully) ; and the not-so-innocent bystanders - peers or siblings who either watch, participate in the bullying or look away, and adults who see bullying as "teasing," not tormenting, and as "boys will be boys" or as " girl drama," not the predatory aggression that it is.
