No one wants their children or child to be bullied or defenceless in situations when you're not present. Thankfully, they don’t have to be, and you can help them for their sake but for your peace of mind.
There are many things you can do to equip them for such situations. By preparing them in advance, you will be equipping your child with skills to effectively deal with bullies.
