I dont know much about that in this era like tech era
When i was a kid i think bullies still there but we are strong enough since we are raise in harsh environment and still using the strongest take everything. So, like it or not we are fighting. But that really different with this era i guess,
There is no point using physical violence to resolve the problem, right now using tech,money,and creative mind to resolve problem. And i dont know in your country but in my country Millenial era starting to go lazy and starting sedentary lifestyle that makes low health quality and they are ( in this case my era too) realize or not teaching their children with sedentary lifestyle too which is from my opinion low quality health will bring low quality mental. And worsening by social media that really easy to accessing kid. It can reduce both health and mental i guess.
But back again since i really new about this parenting and still learning about parenting so i need to read this article too. I still dont know which one is better. And if my son got bullied as long as he can handle the emotion and not make impacted physic like broken bones or make cripple i teaching him to avoid them at first and if they cannot be avoided he need to fight back with smart ways.
(Sorry if my grammar is bad)

I agree, this digital age certainly adds a new layer when it comes to mental health. Then physical health and nutrition will also play a part. It's very complex and there isn't a simple solution.
My eldest had a short period of time of bullying before we moved schools. It was a matter of straight forward jealousy which we discussed tactics to handle. Initially it wasn't a problem, but when the tactics didn't work it started to wear her down. We were leaving the school anyway due to the move, so it stopped when she left. Because it didn't get to the point of extreme I feel like it was a bit of a lesson that she could learn some things about dealing with difficult people. Had it escalated and become more than she could deal with I would have stepped in. We let the teacher at the time know that she was having issues with this girl as well, so she could keep an eye on things.
That's okay, I appreciate the genuine comments and thoughts. 🙂
And the bad news is as my wife is a teacher,
there is one condition in my country that teacher cannot hit or even scold harder or else will dealing with police. And since we are minority we need to follow the rules or else will dealing with hardship.
so, right now dealing with kids nowdays will be harder since the system wont allow to act decisively and kid themself wont allowed physical violence and sometimes get the worst that the kid that got bullied shame or afraid to share the story. Thats why many people will suicide in this situation.
We have similar laws. Teachers and coaches can't even comfort children when they are hurt or upset so they are reluctant to touch them physically in any way.
