Bully Proof Your Child – Review
Bully Proof Your Child by Vicki Kirss
Bully Proof Your Child is a practical, accessible guide for parents and caregivers who want to empower their children to become resilient and skilful in handling challenging situations. Bullying is a widespread social issue, and children’s developing self-esteem is vulnerable to the long-term damaging effects of bullying.
In my psychology practice, I’m often helping clients to address and heal from the damage that started in childhood and leads to unhelpful patterns of thinking, emotions and behaviour, and undermines mental health.
Vicki has taken experiences that have affected her personally and used them as motivation to get equipped with the tools and resources that help change unhelpful patterns quickly and effectively. The Bully Proof Your Child program is truly excellent. It’s practical, accessible, and takes parents/caregivers through key skill-building exercises, step-by-step. The book and companion online video program makes the system easy to use, and actually fun! This is all about putting the power back into the hands of families – and children, so they can be emotionally prepared for many of life’s problems, including bullying. This program is for those already affected by bullying and those who love them – rather than waiting and hoping that other people (schools, counsellors, bullies’ parents) will sort out problem behaviour.
I greatly admire Vicki for creating such a comprehensive program that really works. I am a step-mum of 4 wonderful children and I love that their dad and I can use the 7 Keys with the kids as they need them and to give them skills for life. Vicki has taken some of the best bits of NLP and made its magic available to all – congratulations Vicki!
I highly recommend Bully Proof Your Child. It is already changing lives for the better, and if you want a prepared and resilient child, or currently have, or know of a child who is being bullied, get onto this program, now!
