I am providing a link that can take you to a web site sponsored by the National Bullying Prevention Center. It has some excellent tips for parents on how you can help if your child is being bullied. I especially the tips on online bullying as that type of bullying is happening more and more. These tips help you mitigate online bullying and even gives directions on how to contact the actual social media sites (FaceBook, Instagran, SnapChat, etc.) to find out how they can also help as they have antibullying guidelines bui;t into their product. Anyway, I found it a good read with many helpful tips.
