It takes a whole team of people to not just suspend or give detention to the bully, but to possibly create a safe environment for things such as therapy with the bully and victim and both of them separately.]]> 2017-04-20 14:49:35 UTC https://padlet.com/sgtodd20/6skx1rl7j8vj/wish/167280510 sgtodd20 https://padlet.com/sgtodd20/6skx1rl7j8vj/wish/167280520 Across the U.S. some states are taking charge because their current anti-bullying laws are not working.]]> 2017-04-20 14:49:37 UTC https://padlet.com/sgtodd20/6skx1rl7j8vj/wish/167280520 sgtodd20 https://padlet.com/sgtodd20/6skx1rl7j8vj/wish/167280524 "Florida and Kentucky, for example, saw amendments to their anti-bullying laws introduced in their general assemblies. Florida’s bill, which has been signed into law by Governor Rick Scott, requires schools to review and revise their anti-bullying policies at least every three years. And Kentucky’s bill has come up with a clear definition of bullying so schools better recognize bullying when it occurs."]]> 2017-04-20 14:49:38 UTC https://padlet.com/sgtodd20/6skx1rl7j8vj/wish/167280524 sgtodd20 https://padlet.com/sgtodd20/6skx1rl7j8vj/wish/167280527 "These changes to anti-bullying laws are good first steps," states Emily Suski, a Professor of Law at Georgia State University, "but recognizing the problem is not sufficient. Schools also need to know what to do about it as well."]]> 2017-04-20 14:49:39 UTC https://padlet.com/sgtodd20/6skx1rl7j8vj/wish/167280527 sgtodd20 https://padlet.com/sgtodd20/6skx1rl7j8vj/wish/167280535 When punishing bullies, one must take into consideration that some efforts work more than others while some don't work at all.]]> 2017-04-20 14:49:39 UTC https://padlet.com/sgtodd20/6skx1rl7j8vj/wish/167280535 sgtodd20 https://padlet.com/sgtodd20/6skx1rl7j8vj/wish/167280541 "As a result of the lack of guidance or mandates that schools do more than simply punish the bullies, it is likely that schools are treating bullying in the same way as they treat most other serious student disciplinary problems – by suspending and expelling students."]]> 2017-04-20 14:49:40 UTC https://padlet.com/sgtodd20/6skx1rl7j8vj/wish/167280541 sgtodd20 https://padlet.com/sgtodd20/6skx1rl7j8vj/wish/167280545 Although suspension or detention may seem like he best idea at the time, it does not always have the best effect. Bully's can still contact their target via social media or other technological deices. If you suspend or expel them, then they have whatever time they want to bully students. And while detention seems to work, it's only for a limited time after school and does not fully address the problem.]]> 2017-04-20 14:49:41 UTC https://padlet.com/sgtodd20/6skx1rl7j8vj/wish/167280545 sgtodd20 https://padlet.com/sgtodd20/6skx1rl7j8vj/wish/167280548 "While sending students home from school does communicate that the bullying behavior is unacceptable, it does little to teach them how to improve their behavior. When students are suspended or expelled from school, they typically sit home with nothing to do. This is unlikely to stop bullying...moreover, such studies also suggest that students who bully may have behavioral or emotional problems that require intervention in order to address the root cause of bullying."]]> 2017-04-20 14:49:42 UTC https://padlet.com/sgtodd20/6skx1rl7j8vj/wish/167280548
