ABC's for Bully Prevention, Simple as 1-2-3

Book excerpt: Bullying and victimization are not new. They have been around since the beginning of time. ABC's for Bully Prevention, Simple as 1, 2, 3 corresponds the letters of the alphabet to words that relate to victimization, bullying, and intervention. The words are simple yet relevant, a toolbox of different ideas and principles that can be used by all ages: students, teachers, parents, children, preachers, parishioners, correctional workers, law enforcement, supervisors, and employees to educate themselves and others. The concepts challenge the reader to develop an out-of-the-box perspective on how to approach bullying and reduce its negative effects. The author's personal opinion is that children are not born to hate; they are taught to hate. Use this book to reverse that cycle.
