How can you help? Talking is the best way to help
Remember this is an emotionally-charged problem
Stay calm, patient, and ask how you can help
Believe them, refrain from judging or belittling and acknowledge their feelings
Encourage them not to treat bullying as a secret - they can use you as release for their emotions; importantly keep the dialogue open
Praise them for being brave enough to share with you
Think very carefully about approaching other parents
