Would you know if your child was being bullied in school ?

Most of us think we know our kids pretty well, but they do not always give clear clues about what ’s going on in their world.

When kids are bullied, it is embarassing for them and they may not want their parents to know about it, even though they need someone to confide in.

Ther are some signs we can watch out for. Some kids may develop irrational fears that they didn’t have before.

When it comes time for school, they may complain of vague physical ailments, such as headaches or stomach pains.

Other kids may develop nightmares, or have trouble sleeping.

Any behavious that seems out of the ordinary may mean your child is struggling with a bullt at school.

Of course,  it could also signal a more serious problem. Observant parents are quick to notice these changes and even quicker to step in and help.

Kids who are most reluctant to talk about their problems are usually the ones who need to talk about it most.
