When bullying happens, children shouldn’t have to handle it alone.

Work together on a plan:
• Write down what happened, when, and where.
• Save screenshots of online messages.
• Contact the teacher, school counselor, or administrator.
• Identify a trusted adult your child can go to for help.
• Check back with your child and school staff to see whether things are improving.

Encourage your child to seek help instead of fighting back. Keep them involved in the plan so they know what to expect.

If your child needs additional emotional support, Edmond Family Counseling is here to help.

It’s hard to hear that your child is being hurt or left out. Before jumping into solutions, let them know you’re glad they told you.

Try saying:
“Thank you for telling me.”
“That sounds really hard.”
“You don’t deserve to be treated that way.”
“We can figure out the next step together.”

Avoid brushing it off with “Just ignore it” or “That’s how kids are.”

Ask what happened and what they’re worried might happen next. Whether it’s bullying, conflict, or exclusion, your child needs to know you take their feelings seriously.

Being heard is a meaningful place to begin. As a parent, if you need additional support, we are here for you at Edmond Family Counseling.

October is Bullying Prevention Awareness Month.

Not every disagreement is bullying, but every child’s concern deserves to be heard.

Bullying involves unwanted, aggressive behavior, a real or perceived power imbalance, and behavior that repeats—or could repeat. It can happen in person or online.

If your child shares something concerning, ask:
• What happened?
• Has this happened before?
• Do you feel safe?
• Is there an adult at school you feel comfortable talking to?

Start by listening. Understanding what’s happening helps you decide how to support your child.

Tomorrow is World Mental Health Day which is a reminder that your emotional well-being deserves care.

If you’ve considered counseling but wondered, “What would I even say?” you’re not alone.

You can begin with:
“I’ve been feeling overwhelmed.”
“We keep having the same arguments.”
“I’m worried about my child.”
“I’m not sure what I need, but I could use some support.”

At Edmond Family Counseling, we support children, teens, adults, and families. You don’t need the perfect words to take the first step.

Call 405-341-3554 or visit edmondfamily.org to learn more. 💜. Make today the first step!

Five steps for helping
If you are worried that a teen may be considering su***de, remember these five steps:
Ask directly if they are thinking about su***de.
Be there and listen without judgment.
Help keep them safe and do not leave them alone when there is immediate danger.
Help them connect with a trusted adult, mental health professional or crisis counselor.
Follow up and continue checking in. Edmond Family is here to help you. Regular counseling is important if your teen needs consistent help.
Call or text 988 for support for yourself or someone you are concerned about. If there is immediate physical danger, call 911.
You do not have to manage a crisis alone.

Listen before trying to fix it
When a teen opens up, our first instinct may be to offer advice, solve the problem or explain why things will get better.
Begin by listening.
Try saying:
• “I’m glad you told me.”
• “I’m here, and we will face this together.”
• “Tell me more about what you’ve been feeling.”
• “What kind of support would feel helpful right now?”
Avoid dismissing their feelings because the situation seems temporary or small. What feels manageable to an adult may feel overwhelming to a young person.
Listen calmly, believe them and help them connect with support.
