Popularity & Friendship Problems

After parents, friends may be a child’s most influential teachers. Friends teach children lessons about the importance of loyalty, what it means to give and take, how to be a leader and a follower. Friends can encourage children to do well in school or encourage negative behaviors. This QuickTip helps parents teach their child how to make and keep friends, and avoid peer pressure. Parents will also get ideas on what to do when they think their child’s friends are having a negative influence. These social skills are critical in school…and in life. Stock #1161 (Spanish #2161)

The Apathetic Child

The child who is apathetic seems to care about nothing. He doesn't care if he learns or not, if he ruins his teachers’ or peers’ day, or disrupts the class. The threat of punishment doesn’t seem to matter. Apathetic children leave parents and educators at a loss. This QuickTip has answers. It describes the apathetic child, possible causes, and ways to prevent apathy from developing. It also gives sound advice on what parents can do to combat apathy in their child. A must for all parents today! Stock #1162 (Spanish #2162)

Violence

Parents, better than anyone else, can teach children that violence will not be tolerated. Parents can remind children that the violence they see on television is not real—that real people, including the actors they see on TV—have better ways of handling conflict. This QuickTip addresses violence and how parents can help dispel the perception that violence is OK. It gives parents tips for helping their child learn to handle the anger, conflicts, sadness and stress that can lead to violent behavior. Stock #1163 (Spanish #2163)

Bullies

Dealing with a bully can be traumatic. There is fear of bodily harm and embarrassment, and the child suffers from a sense of injustice when they have done nothing to provoke the attack. Bullied children may also lose self-esteem. This QuickTip helps parents teach children ways of handling bullies, and how to avoid bullies in the first place. Parents will love the suggestions. They will feel more at ease as they help their child avoid a bad experience. Stock #1164 (Spanish #2164)

Gangs

Gangs are growing in influence with today's young people. Gangs can be found in all types of communities, from cities to suburbs and even small towns. Gang members live in the projects and in million-dollar homes. This QuickTip gives parents information they need to know about gangs—what they are, who joins them and why. Parents will also get tips on how to tell if gangs are operating in their community, if their child is a member, and the preventive measures they can take to keep their child out of gangs.
