We can address this behavior in several ways:
• Before our children become victims (ages 5-9) we can involve them in groups outside the school (e.g. scouts, YM/YWCA, JCC, gymnastics, karate, skating, etc. etc.) Give them diverse friendship circles, so that if a situation arises, there are alternate venues of support already in place. Furthermore, by expanding and enriching your child's horizons, s/he may stumble upon a passion, which will engross her/him and help shore up a sense of identity. This is something they may cling to in the face of any instances of Relational Aggression in the future.
