More DescriptionHow many parents know that the school is responsible for bullying that occurs on school property and sometimes off school property? How many parents know that school districts and states hold conferences every year where education consultants teach school board members, administrators and teachers how to avoid being sued by parents when bullying occurs? JT Lichtfuss, PhD, EdS shares some of his experiences being bullied at various stages of his life to include; As a member of the United States Army, after being diagnosed with cancer, "on the job", as well as many more examples. Dr. Lichtfuss offers solutions to the current trend and epidemic of overmedicating children, teenagers and adults instead of working with the individual on the proper ways to solve conflict. Everyone experiences conflict. Everyone needs to recognize and analyze the proper way to approach that conflict and resolve or manage that conflict effectively and appropriately. Children need to recognize and understand how to effectively mitigate today's wide variety of problems from bullying to dealing with your girl/boy-friend breaking up with you. If our children fail to handle the conflict they experience how will they handle conflict as an adult? Redefining Bullying will:Offer current statistics Explain how bullying is the same as terrorismProvide insight into how bullying needs to be redefined.Examine some of the more notable school and terrorist attacksExamine some of the current solutions to bullyingExplain how we are over medicating childrenOffer solutions and examine the futureDr. Lichtfuss feels that the only way parents can solve school bullying is by holding the schools accountable for the lack of safety and security within today's schools and to teach their children conflict resolution/management strategies that they will be able to use throughout their life.
