Working With Kids Who Bully

Working With Kids Who Bully: New Perspectives on Prevention and Intervention

Author - Walter Roberts

Of all the literature and media attention devoted to the subject of bullying and its after-effects, very little attention has actually been given to those who are at the heart of the interaction—the ones we have traditionally labeled the bully. This book is an effort to start the process of plugging that gap and to encourage those who choose to “go upstream” to find the causes of why it is that some children choose to intimidate their peers, while others do not.

We tend to be reactionary as opposed to proactive in dealing with interpersonal situations because, even though it can be more cost effective in the long run, it is also hard work to practice prevention when dealing with human behavior. This book acknowledges this hard work but is designed to offer the practitioner both practical considerations and applications of strategies and tactics for helping those who bully to pull back, and hopefully cease, their behaviors, as well as encourage a new generation of additional creative ideas.

Features and Benefits:

• Provides information on many techniques and strategies for preventing bullying

• Gives the reader the most up-to-date information on bullying prevention

• Presents a unique perspective on focusing on recognizing and preventing bullying behaviors rather than labeling the child or adolescent as a bully
