Sometimes kids freeze up when someone is mean — that’s normal.
You can help by giving them words to use when they need to stand up for themselves:
✨ “Please stop. That’s not kind.”
✨ “I’m not okay with that.”
✨ “That’s not funny.”
✨ “Let’s do something different.”

The more you talk about it at home, the easier it is for them to speak up in the moment.
