Synopsis

Bobby Kipper and Bud Ramey, two best selling authors on youth violence in America, offer you and your children the clear information and tools needed to help navigate the dangerous epidemic of bullying in America.

If your children haven’t already been affected by bullying, it is very likely on the way.

Published by the National Center for the Prevention of Community Violence, led by career police officer Bobby Kipper, this concise guide is designed to answer the plea heard all over America, “What should I do?”

What should I do when my child’s reputation is being destroyed online? What do I do if my child becomes the bully? What do I do when physical confrontation is inevitable? Should I confront the parents of a bully?

Ultimately, No BULLIES and its predecessor No COLORS — 100 Ways to Stop Gangs from Taking Over Our Communities, together address “best practices” for making a difference in the civility crisis in our nation that is impacting an entire generation.
