Bully Blocking

Published Australia, 2007
Bully Blocking offers practical advice to help children aged 4-16 years deal with bullies who tease, exclude, intimidate or harass. Evelyn Field shows how the attitudes of both bullies and their targets can be transformed to ensure that their self-destructive behaviour does not carry on into the future. The Six Secrets of Relating, the core of the book, show children how to:

Understand Their Feelings
Realise Why They are Being Bullied or Teased (or why they bully others)
Build Their Self-Esteem
Become Confident Communicators
Create a `Power Pack` of Helpful Skills
Develop a Support Network.

The book includes a chapter on what schools can do about bullying and a supplement to help teachers apply the book`s practical exercises and activities in the classroom.

Evelyn Field is a counselling psychologist in Melbourne, Australia, who has been working with children and adults since the 1970s.
