Help!
I’m Being Bullied Dr. Emily Lovegrove, an expert on the psychology of bullying, has written this book to help both the children who are being bullied, and their parents. It is based on her research and work with many hundreds of young people and their families. It features a new approach to bullies and bullying that has been enormously successful largely due to the fact that it was developed in collaboration with teenagers. Written with alternate chapters for adults and children, the book provides a valuable self-help guide for families to understand the reasons why their children are being subjected to bullying - and the resources to help them stop it. “Lovegrove connects with kids who are being bullied by confirming how they feel...parents can use her book and its practice exercises to help children learn the skills they need.”—Children’s Hospital and Regional Medical Center, Seattle, Washington.
