1. The Antidote to Bullying with Deanna Singh Dr. Cam 25:15

If your teen is a target of bullying, the instigator, or even a witness to bullying, this episode is for you.

One out of every five students report being bullied based on their physical appearance, race/ethnicity, gender, disability, religion, or sexual orientation. In other words, prejudice. The bullying behavior can range from verbal and physical assault to casual, yet hurtful comments. In all cases, it has a negative impact on the mental health of everyone involved: the bullied, the bully, and the bystander. 

We know from research that ignoring the behavior or trying to stop it, only makes it worse because it doesn’t address why the behavior exists. So, what do we do instead?

That’s what we’re going to talk about in this episode.

Today I’m joined by Deanna Singh, founder of the Flying Elephant, who is on a mission to empower marginalized communities.
