Richard Hogan: My child is a bully, now what do I do?

Richard Hogan: If your child is bullying others, what can you do?When we understand the reasons why children decide to target other children we can start to think about supporting them out of that behaviour.
Watching your child suffer at the hands of a bully is one of the most disturbing and unsettling experiences we can have as parents.
Two weeks ago I wrote about how to support a child being bullied. I received a number of emails from parents asking me to outline how they can stop their child from being the bully. It is something I deal with a considerable amount in my work in schools.
