This is a worry I have, having been bullied at school when I was a child. I've always said if I ever get a call to say DD had been bullying someone, id be mortified, disappointed, and furious. Before I had kids I said I would bully my child as sort of an "eye for an eye" so they knew what it felt like. Not sure that would be my chosen route now! Though my child's home life would be boring and miserable until they corrected their behaviour, and I'd embarrass her every time she was out 😂 Mum of the year 😂
I think it's harder when you have a child who is bullied though, you can't control that, or other children's behaviour towards your child! A situation I hope to never be in. I hope my child isn't a bully and I hope my child is never bullied. I believe it's all in the parenting. You teach your children the correct way to treat people, and hope they always keep that in mind.
