When the School Won’t Help: What Parents Need to Know About Bullying

𝐌𝐚𝐧𝐲 𝐩𝐚𝐫𝐞𝐧𝐭𝐬 𝐡𝐚𝐯𝐞 𝐚𝐬𝐤𝐞𝐝 𝐦𝐞: “𝐖𝐡𝐚𝐭 𝐝𝐨 𝐈 𝐝𝐨 𝐰𝐡𝐞𝐧 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐬𝐜𝐡𝐨𝐨𝐥 𝐰𝐨𝐧’𝐭 𝐡𝐞𝐥𝐩?”

After all my years teaching violence prevention, I’ve read the same surface-level advice over and over — and it’s never sat right with me.

“Tell someone.” “Walk away.” “Just stand up for yourself.”

But what if they already did?

What if they’re still being ignored — or worse, blamed?

This is a new focus of mine — one I’ve been thinking of for years.
Because bullying doesn’t start and stop at the school door.

That’s 10 out of 30 kids in a classroom. And many don’t tell anyone — not because it doesn’t hurt, but because they think no one will believe them or nothing will change.

Just like many survivors of assault, silence becomes a way to cope — but it doesn’t mean they feel safe.

That’s why I created the 𝐒𝐀𝐅𝐄 𝐅𝐫𝐨𝐦 𝐁𝐮𝐥𝐥𝐲𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐑𝐞𝐬𝐩𝐨𝐧𝐬𝐞 𝐊𝐢𝐭 — a printable, detailed, easy to follow tool for parents who feel stuck, frustrated, or alone.

It includes:
✅ A daily bullying tracker
✅ Email templates and follow-up scripts
✅ A documentation checklist
✅ Meeting request and escalation guides
✅ Organized action plan worksheets

Because we know that facing school staff can be one of the most challenging aspects, we’ve also created an optional 𝐏𝐚𝐫𝐞𝐧𝐭 𝐂𝐨𝐧𝐟𝐥𝐢𝐜𝐭 𝐂𝐡𝐞𝐚𝐭 𝐒𝐡𝐞𝐞𝐭 with strategies from my book, Disarm Daily Conflict.

It helps you stay calm, be heard, and advocate with clarity when the emotions are high and the stakes feel even higher.

🎯 This isn’t about blaming schools. It’s about giving parents the tools and language they need to be strong, clear, and supported when their child needs it most.

🎁 Bonus:
If you purchase both, I’ll personally send you a free PDF copy of my book, Disarm Daily Conflict – Your Life Depends On It.

You could be the reason a child feels safe — and a parent finally feels heard.
