Description: Back again by popular request! We can all
visualize (and perhaps even have vivid memories) of the “school
yard bully” of our youth, but did you ever consider that the bully
could be a cute, intelligent, popular little girl in your school or
classroom? The topic of female bullying is a relatively new
study…but it is NOT a new phenomenon. Unlike their male
counterparts, female bullies use much more covert/hidden methods to
express their aggression toward other girls, and it is both rampant
and painful. Our society’s new technological advancements—
including text messaging, camera phones, instant messaging and the
Internet—have provided many additional opportunities for these
“mean girls” to taunt, humiliate, degrade and abuse their
victims. Attend this workshop to learn about this hidden
culture and how to help both the victims and the “mean
girls”…because if these issues are left unaddressed, these “mean
girls” can and do grow up to be mean women! Repeated.
