Whether on the school playground or in the neighborhood park, children sometimes find themselves the target of bullies.
When that happens, these bullies can not only frighten a youngster -- shaking his confidence and spoiling his play -- but they can also cause bodily injury.
Avoiding a bully is one reason your child may be reluctant to go to school.
Perhaps he is being forced to relinquish his lunch money to this bully. Or, he might be fearful of physical harm. If you suspect a problem like this, you need to take action to ensure your child's safety and well-being.
Here to offer some strategies your child can adopt with your help, and which will help make him safer, is special guest, Dr Bob Sege.
