The new school year has been underway for about a week and the bullying has begun. It doesn't take long for the bully-target relationships to become established. Some of the bullying will appear invisible to adult eyes because it will happen online or in the form of text messages. For girls, the bullying can be more subtle - just with an eye-roll or exclusion.
I'm pleased to be the keynote speaker for a conference on Cyberbullying and Relational Aggression taking place Saturday September 27 at the Lorain C.C.C. Spitzer Conference Center (Lorain, OH). Campus Impact is putting on the helpful event for educators, therapists, social workers, and anyone else concerned about this topic. Visit their web site to register or call 440-864-2011.
If you have questions or situations you'd like me to address during my presentation, please feel free to post them here! Also, consider starting a group for girls to teach them how to build and maintain healthy friendships with a copy of the Circle of F.R.I.E.N.D.S. Facilitator's Guide.
