Bullying is a serious issue kids face at school. While its bad news to have kids bullied at school, it's even more dangerous to have a child growing up as a bully. Bullies often perpetuate their negative attitudes as a result of the environment to which they grow up in. It can be hard to accept that something is wrong in the home but that's a reality faced by most families who have kids growing up as bullies at school. Here are some ways you can use to avoid a child that can potentially grow up to be a bully. 1. Make time to take your child out - Every kid appreciates the time that their parents are able to give them. Have at least one day during the weekend entirely dedicated to the family so that the kids can believe that they can have fun with you. The important thing is that you let your child feel that you have time for them and that you are willing to listen to whatever troubles they may be having at the moment. 2. Avoid exposing your kids to violent media - Kids pick up a lot of stuff from their formative years and most of the things they may see on TV may be perceived as correct when in fact, it's not. You might want to closely monitor and moderate the things they get exposed to and see to it that it is age-appropriate for them before you let them read, listen to, or watch it. 3. Recognize the problem - Signs of intermittent aggression or outbursts can show as early as 3 years old. You might have a loving and quiet family, but there are developmental issues that will not manifest physically but in attitude. If you observe that your child is acting a bit different from kids the same age as they are, you might want to consider having them evaluated by a developmental psychologist especially if aggression is involved. 4. Time Out - Whenever your child manifests inappropriate behavior towards others, resort o to doing a time-out instead of spanking or shouting at them. This way, you can get to have their attention just as they have done something wrong. Time Outs is the perfect opportunity for you to explain what makes the action done or the behavior displayed as something wrong. 5. Read to your kids - Kids have a hyper imagination so one good way that you can give them good examples, aside from personally being one, is through reading to them and letting them have the right dose of fiction materials. This can also turn out to be a great bonding moment between you and your kids. Bullying can be avoided as you spend more time with your kids. You should also care to become a good example to them because this is the only way you can show them what's right and what's wrong. Violence should also be avoided inside the home as this subconsciously imprints itself to the child's mind.
