Lecture – How Parents Can Raise a Socially Resilient Child: Breaking the Cycle of Reactivity, Exclusion and Bullying.
“It has been very moving over the years to see how many children are dramatically helped to end the cycle of teasing, become more socially resilient and make good friends when their parents have the courage to bring greater balance and simplicity into the families life.” KJP
While schools can do a lot to work through situations of teasing, parents can be very effective in giving their children some age appropriate simple strategies to avoid being caught up in the destructive cycle of teasing and bullying.
This is a talk and workshop that focuses on the effects of the fast paced life life many of our families experience and how social tensions at home and school can result in bullying, teasing and exclusion. A very do-able solution is offered that is tried and proven with countless families over the last 25 years. What is different about this approach, and some say unique, is that practical tools are given to family helpers and families that can be implemented right away that break the cycle of bullying and teasing.
In this workshop we will explore how parents can…
* Bring greater balance into their family to deal with the fast paced life style that has become for so many “the new normal”
* Create calmer and more resilient children who can break the cycle of reactivity
* Break the cycle of teasing or being teased if it has already started
* Prevent their child teasing or being teased
* Move from being isolated to building friendship
These strategies will be presented in a step by step format that is simple and very effective in most situations of teasing and bullying. The child feels…
* “I am safe and being listened to.”
* “This is not going to get me into trouble.”
* “This is not some weird adult idea.”
* “I am going to be able to do this at school on my own without anyone knowing my parents are helping me.”
