Bullying has probably affected every one of us at some point in our lives.  Whether it be at school, by other children, or maybe even a teacher.  Maybe in the workplace by colleagues or a boss. The fact is that it’s a huge problem within our society and it affects every social class.  It’s so ingrained in our society, it seems near impossible to stamp out.

I remember giving birth to all three of my babies as if it were yesterday.  It’s amazing how time flies by.  Dealing with newborns, shopping, constant washing and toddler tantrums.  I was resolved to the idea that this was my life now.  I didn’t resent any of it.  It’s just that I had no idea of how difficult parenting would be.

You’ve just found out that your child has been self-harming. Feelings of upset, confusement and maybe even anger about the situation. It would be a shock to any parent and it’s not uncommon to be overwhelmed with an array of such feelings…

It’s devastating for a parent when they find out that their child is being bullied at school. Bullying is on the rise, and many parents feel the school isn’t doing enough to stop it.Often, victims are too frightened to tell anyone because they fear it’ll make things worse for them, so it carries on.
