Welcome to the doll house
PURPOSE
Bullying affects everyone in a school community, not just the bullies and victims. Children who exhibit bullying behavior need to learn how their behavior affects others and they need guidance in modifying their behavior in order to become a positive member of the community. Studies indicate that early intervention with a focus on counselingresults in a higher level of success in modifying bullying behavior.
