Children need to learn the strategies to defend themselves from bullies
Dr. George Thompson of the Verbal Judo Institute details a new program that teaches children to deflect bullying, verbal assault and harassment.
(EMAILWIRE.COM, April 05, 2010 ) Milwaukee, WI - Dr. George Thompson, founder of the Verbal Judo Institute, outlines his proven strategies on how children can defend themselves from bullies using words.
Dr. Thompson stated: “In a few short weeks, the Governor of Massachusetts will sign anti-bullying legislation into law. As the spotlight turns to the devastating effects of verbal abuse, experts from many walks of life will bring their two cents to the table. You will hear about the damage and torment. You will hear theories and opinions. But what we need are solutions that will make bullying stop.”
Here are some anti-bullying tips children rooted that Dr. Thompson has collected from 30 years of teaching tactical communications to crisis professionals:
• Anyone who is the target of verbal harassment – both children and adults – must devise a pre-planned, practiced response before a confrontation takes place,
• The goal is de-escalation, therefore responses must be made without a trace of anger,
• Assaults can be deflected by letting the bully know why it’s in his (or her) best interest to stop. Shielding with words is like blocking a physical punch.
To bring proven strategies like these to the table, Dr. Thompson has released a Verbal Self Defense - Youth Program that explains methods and techniques for children. After 14 lessons of his Verbal Self Defense college-credentialed course, educators will have a fully equipped toolkit to bully-proof children … and will know how to respond to stop bullying immediately.
“Great damage is done to the victim, the bully and the bystander when harassment, verbal assault and bullying take place. Verbal Judo isn’t a theory; it is a practical, proven solution.”
The Verbal Judo Institute, founded by Dr. George Thompson in 1983, trains people in all walks of life on conflict resolution via the tactical use of words rather than force. Four books have been written on Verbal Judo and over 700,000 law enforcement professionals have been trained on its methods. Visit www.verbaljudo.com.
