5 Ways Adults can Stop Bullies
(Kiwanis) Back in the day you were called a “snitch” if you told on someone. And you’d never “rat out” bullies for fear of becoming their next target. So tattling behavior got a bad rap, while bad behavior got overlooked. The bullies gained power; the victims lost hope, along with their self-esteem. Fast-forward to the present and you’ll find a good many adults who hesitate to act when they hear about or witness bullying, because they look back on it as a normal part of growing up.
But the truth is, there’s nothing “normal” about it. This is a different era. Bullying is neither normal nor a phase.It’s repeated deliberate abusive activity that’s harmful, hostile, and demoralizing. These are not the moral stepping stones to a healthy, happy childhood. There’s nothing gained developmentally by enduring abuse from others or by those dishing it out.
So if you’re an adult and you learn of a bullying situation, step up. You can make a tremendous difference in kids’ lives and in your community. Here are a handful of ways.
Be sure to check back later in the week to find out if your community’s schools are doing their part to prevent and eliminate bullying. Until then, check out these additional resources to learn more about what you can do to stop bullying when you encounter it.

Thank you for letting me speak to your club about Key Leader! It is an amazing program, that has an impact on the lives of kids here in our area.
We are looking for help from your club in a couple of areas:
Friday November 8, we need about 3 people to come to camp Kitaki and help us get the camp set up for the weekend. I would like them to get there at noon to get started, and we should be finished by 3 pm at the latest. We’ll be setting up chairs, getting name tags, books, and tee shirts set up for the kids, setting up signage and some other smaller tasks.
Also, on Saturday night, November 9th, i’d love it if your club could provide the materials needed for Smores. 9 pm. is the time for the camp fire. This will give your club members an opportunity to see Key Leader first hand and see the impact that it has on our kids.
We are expecting about 80 kids and 10-12 chaperones in addition to this. I know it is alot, let me know if you all need some help on the financial side.
Here is a link to a of the camp.
