Growing up is a challenge. And one of the biggest factors that can add to a difficult childhood is bullying. Bullying is a hardship that must not be dismissed as either expected or unimportant. That’s why it’s critical that you understand the signs of bullying. One sign your child might be getting bullied is if they begin faking an illness in the morning. It may be their way of trying to avoid school and bullies. Another sign your child may be facing a bully is if they come home with their books, clothing, or other belongings damaged. Always be on the lookout for changes in your child’s behavior from bullying. Know how to recognize a child being bullied.
