Hailed as "a definitive guide to bullying" by Kathleen Shannon of NBC-TV's talk show "207," "Bullied: Why You Feel Bad Inside and What to Do About It" by award-winning author Katherine Mayfield is a guide for tweens, teens, and adults who need help to recover from the trauma of bullying.This revised and expanded second edition of "Bullied" explains why bullies do what they do, teaches the skills of emotional intelligence, and presents a simple four-step plan which readers can use to manage their feelings and express them in healthy ways. Also included are tips for coping with bullies; hotlines and advice for readers who are considering suicide; suggestions for raising self-esteem; quotes from famous people; and interviews with psychologists and adults who were bullied in childhood and took steps to recover from the trauma.Despite the tremendous efforts that have been made to stop the bullying epidemic, bullying is still a huge issue in many schools. Regulations and anti-bullying laws are only partially successful. What's missing is emotional intelligence--attention to the human side of the situation: the hearts and souls of bullies and their victims. Until the emotional side of the issue is addressed, the epidemic will most likely continue. "Bullied" fills the gap by teaching readers the skills and tools of emotional intelligence, and offering a simple plan for managing feelings and building self-esteem.Mayfield is the author of the award-winning memoir, "The Box of Daughter."
