  5. Stop Bullying Now! If you suspect your child is being bullied or your child brings it up, consider these steps: ( For Parental Use) Talk with your child. Focus on your child. Express your concern and make it clear that you want to help. Empathize with your child. Say bullying is wrong, that it is not their fault, and that you are glad they had the courage to tell you about it. Work together to find solutions. Ask your child what they think can be done to help. Reassure them that the situation can be handled privately.  Document ongoing bullying. Work with your child to keep a record of all bullying incidents. If it involves cyberbullying, keep a record of all messages or postings. Help your child develop strategies and skills for handling bullying. Provide suggestions for ways to respond to bullying, and help your child gain confidence by rehearsing their responses.   Be persistent.  Bullying may not be resolved overnight. Stay vigilant to other possible problems that your child may be having. Some of the warning signs may be signs of other serious problems. Share your concerns with a counselor at your child's school.
