How to deal with the mean kid in your life

Children spend a lot of time in their own world. Whether it's at day care or primary school, it's hard to know what's always going on.

A kick, a shove - name calling. What do you do then? Dana Kerford is the Founder or U R Strong, an organisation helping children have healthy friendships. Dana doesn't believe that any child is inherently mean - though she knows that some kids can be 'mean on purpose'. In this interview she gives us some practical tips on how to help our children deal with them.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
