Bullying can be traumatic. Whether a child or adult, hearing threats or being physically pushed around causes anxiety, even fear. Bullying in schools leaves a child feeling helpless, fearful, and maybe angry. If you see your child withdrawing or being aggressive toward siblings (animals), it is important to explore what’s going on at school. What is the source of changing behavior? Exploring the problem and possible solutions demonstrates your support and caring.
