Bullying is an ongoing and deliberate misuse of power through repeated verbal, physical and/or social behavior that intends to cause physical, social and/or psychological harm. In this interactive and informative workshop, the attendees will be able to take away a clear understanding of:
- What is bullying?
- What are the different forms of bullying?
- How can it be a part of their lives?
- What are the red flags to look for?
- Where does it most likely occur and how to avoid it?
- How to recognize it and identify it?
- How to deal with it and help children of all ages deal with it?
Surveys have shown that the average age a child gets a connected device is 10 years old. It has also been reported that 25% of children under the age of 6 years old have devices and half of them spend up to 21 hours a week on their devices. Along with the device, comes the risk of exposure to an incident of cyberbullying. This workshop will provide you with the proper tools and ways to help your child to become aware of these risks.
Whether you think your child might be bullied, has been bullied, is currently being bullied, or might even be the bully him(her)self, this workshop is designed to help you gain the tools and techniques to best deal with any of the situations.
By raising awareness, students who attend the workshop will be able to gain a clearer understanding of how to define bullying; as well as its negative effects on individuals; through:
- bullying, harassment and discrimination
- how they can use their personal power to resolve and prevent these problems
- how they can find and use resources to respond to bullying and harassment, including cyberbullying.
Having worked with numerous schools, parents, organizations as well as students, Maya has become an advocate for raising awareness when it comes to bullying in the region.
