Bullying Facts:

Bullying in schools has increased in the past 15 years.

Bullying in schools has become increasingly more violent. Bullying is frequently a factor in school related deaths.

4 million youths engage in Bullying each year.

Over 3 million youths are victims of moderate to severe Bullying each year.

2/3 of all students believe that teachers are not willing to intervene to help stop Bullying.

25% of teachers see nothing wrong with Bullying and only intervene in 4% of Bullying Incidents.

Every day close to 200,000 children avoid going to school because they are afraid of being Bullied.

Bullying stories in the news and Bullying articles in publications have become more frequent and common since the Columbine school shootings that left 13 students dead. Teasing — leading to violence, substance abuse, and suicide — is the dark road that Bullying takes its victims down.

Cyber Bullying statistics: half of all kids have experienced Bullying online. And half of those cyber-bully victims have had their lives threatened more than once. School personnel need to become more educated on how this technology is hurting students.

There are many different types of Bullying:

Bullying can take the form of:

1.) teasing and mean words

2.) threats and harassment

3.) hitting and physical abuse

4.) mental and emotional abuse

5.) harmful texts – cyber bullying

6.) damaging property and robbery

7.) leaving someone out – exclusion

8.) gossiping and rumors

9.) manipulating others

10.) plotting mischief – sabotage

11.) negative body language/facial expressions

12.) intimidation

Most children are statistics of bullying fitting into 1 of 3 categories:

a.) the bullies

b.) the bullied

c.) those who stand watching and do nothing. (bystanders of bullying)

Many bullies claim to have once been the victims of bullying themselves. We need to prevent this ugly endless cycle.

Almost 75% of students report bullying as a frequent occurrence. And those are only the bullying incidences that are actually reported. Imagine all the victims of bullying who are suffering silently.

Bully Police USA, a supporter of Taking the Bully by the Horns, state that 3 out of 4 students reported that they are bullied. 90% of students said bullying caused them academic, social, and emotional problems.

But you don’t need statistics on bullying to see what a serious issue bullying has become. Look around you — bullying is everywhere. And bullying does not not just happen in the United States. Visit any playground. Ask any child– you may shocked (and horrified) at what you will learn.

Taking the Bully by the Horns does exactly what the title implies. It takes the bull or “bully” by the horns — stopping it before it stops you (or your child). “Taking the Bully by the Horns” books, bullying programs for staff and students, and anti-bullying workshops all definitively answer the question – What is Bullying? And what can you do to STOP IT. You’ll also learn how to identify bullies, and how to deal with the effects of bullying.

“Taking the Bully by the Horns” is nationally acclaimed, having been awarded honors for saving the lives of children. The books and programs have also received both private and public praise for making homes and schools safer places, and empowering the victims of bullying. We not only need to stop bullying, but also to pick up the broken pieces left in its wake.

Many victims who were bullied need a book like “Taking the Bully by the Horns” to help them learn to trust again, to win back their strength as individuals, and to improve their self-esteem. Victims need to understand what happened to them and learn why. They also need the right tools to prevent bullying from ever happening again. This book gives the reader the opportunity to be an active participant in openly discussing this issue either as a class group, or privately in the provided note section of the book.

Bullying Prevention needs to be top priority in schools now. Half of all schools do not take bullying prevention seriously which puts them at risk of:

losing students,
earning a bad reputation,
risking the safety of staff and students,
and dealing with angry families seeking legal action.

Consequently, the courts are taking the family’s sides due to the hard fact that more and more bullying laws are being passed by governments and set into place therefore leaving no excuse for any school to not already have bullying programs set into place and bullying books available for counselors and students in their libraries.
