In Bully Blocking, Evelyn M. Field believes the key to managing bullying is understanding, knowing the causes, organisational damage, personal injuries, and symptoms, as well as developing options and strategies to manage bullying more collaboratively and effectively.
This edition has been heavily updated and will be an invaluable resource for parents, teachers, educators, and counsellors working with children who are at risk of or experiencing bullying.
Importantly, this book shows how the attitudes of both bullies and their targets can be transformed to ensure that their self-destructive behaviour does not carry on into the future. The Six Secrets of Relating, the core of the book, show children how to: • Understand their feelings • Realise why they are being bullied or teased (or why they bully others) • Build their self-esteem • Become confident communicators • Create a 'power pack' of helpful skills, and • Develop a support network.
Bully Blocking is based on Evelyn Field's Secrets of relating, a six-step model which has proved highly successful in her counselling work with young people in schools and private practice.
"Bully Blocking contains many imaginative suggestions for parents and children on how to cope with the problem of being victimised by their peers at school."
- Professor Ken Rigby, University of South Australia, author of Bullying in Schools and What to Do About It
"Bully Blocking is an invaluable resource for children, parents, teachers and all professionals working with children who are aware of the often-devastating consequences of bullying that is allowed to go unchecked."
- Professer Frank Oberklaid, Director, Centre for Community Child Health, Royal Children's Hospital Melbourne
