Read the text that follows.

What can you do if school downplays your report of bullying?

Your child is being bullied at school. He or she has mustered the courage to tell you about it-no small feat, considering how humiliating it can be for kids to tell their parents about maltreatment by their peers-and together, you have tried everything you can think of to manage the problem on your own. Your child has practiced ignoring the bully, avoiding his tormentors, standing up to mean kids in assertive ways, trying to enlist his teacher's support, and using humor to deflect the bully's taunting. He has shut down his facebook page and stopped texting entirely, hoping that taking himself out of the technology loop might give him some respite from the cruelty. Yet, the bullying persists....and it is getting worse.
