Sorry for long-winded title and I know it's late, this just came to mind.
How do you explain to your children that they mustn't hit other kids - but on the other hand, stand up for yourself if being bullied?
Or the grey area around not telling tales but telling an adult when someone has hurt you, etc?
I'm off to bed, so I don't expect any replies until tomorrow anyway, but I wanted to be able to explain things to my 5 year old.
