How to Protect Children From Bullying While Playing on a Playground

Did your child complain about being bullied at school playground? Didn't it leave you in a difficult position as you couldn't see what actually happened? Bullying in school is commonly observed and it puts parents in a difficult situation.

Since you can't be there for your child when nasty things happen to him, you have got to teach him how to protect himself. My aim of this article is to teach you how can you teach your child different ways of handling bullying. Scroll down to know!

Analyze the Actual Situation

Before taking action or teaching him anything, you should first access what happened actually whether you are or aren't present physically. When you are present, watch him carefully and intervene when you see a child's mean behavior towards your kid. However, do it only when you have observed the situation long enough.

However, if you aren't present, ask him for minor details. He might be reluctant in telling you what actually happened, so be as friendly with him as possible and give him enough room to open up to you. Accessing the situation properly will help you in giving correct advises to your child.

Involve Yourself

If you see another child is hurting your kid physically, it's high time you intervene and warn him with strict words. Take him out of the situation immediately and give him some time to relax as his mind must be racing. Ask him to lie down on foam padding for playgrounds for a few minutes then teach him some physical tricks to protect himself.

If you see your child being emotionally abused, call him out immediately as this can be a threat to his mental health. Ask him to play in a different area.

Talk to Parents or Teachers

Bullying happens when children play together in a playground with playground equipment or church playground equipment. Look for parents of the kid who bullied your child and tell them how he behaved. No one likes listening to his or her child is a bully so I am sure it will help you out. If this happens in school, contact the teachers and ask them to keep an eye on such situations. If the teacher couldn't help, ask the school administrator to help you out. However, explain them your situation calmly and do not fret.

Instruct Your Child

Incidents of bullying occur due to lack of supervision on playgrounds. Role play is a way to teach your kid necessary skills to protect himself when other children bully him. If your child isn't bold enough to stand up for himself, teach him how to ignore other kids and take another way. However, teaching him how to stop other child firmly is essential for his protection. Teach him some sentences and ask him to practice it with an adult around except you. Make the adult a bully and your child a victim and ask them to exchange dialogues.
