Insightful, practical guidance for parents

As a parent of young kids, I found this book to be incredibly helpful and will come back to it as a resource. Great combination of clearly explaining the psychology and theory behind bullying, different reasons why kids are targets or bullies, and how not every social or relational conflict is “bullying.” Lots of real life anecdotes that illustrate what people experience as targets, bullies, bystanders (which the author calls “upstanders” to encourage everyone to actively speak up & do something when meanness is overtaking kindness in front of us). Very concrete advice for parents on how to work with (or if needed file complaints with) schools, and how to talk with and guide our kids to foster resilience and self confidence, and avoid, de escalate, or at worst survive and thrive, bullying incidents or patterns. Highly recommend.
