Raising Boys: Wounded Spirits
October 14, 2002
Research shows that 86 percent of children have firsthand experience with a
bully. Why is this problem so severe, and what can be done to prevent it? Dr.
Dobson has a few ideas he'd like to share.
TODAY'S BROADCAST
Raising Boys: Wounded Spirits (part 1 of 2) - Video Soundtrack Bullying is as
old as school itself, leaving many children with long-lasting emotional scars.
Join us today as Dr. Dobson discusses the problem boys often have with
"wounded spirits," offering advice to parents who see their child demonstrate
behaviors that may be a result of bullying.
"[Bullying] is a phenomenon that's taking place in school and the impact of it
lasts for a lifetime."
-- Dr. James Dobson

TODAY'S BROADCAST
Raising Boys: Kids & Bullying - Panel
October 16, 2002
Teasing.
Taunting. A black eye. A textbook to the face. More than eight out of ten young
teens today experience some sort of bullying and the problem is only getting
worse. So what's a parent to do?
Chances are
that your child has had a run in with a bully. Listen in as Dr. Dobson and a
group of young students discuss the damaging effects of bullying, and how
parents can address the problem and best protect their children.
"I am convinced that many of the kids
that are striking out in rage on school campuses have stored anger from the
bullying that occurs in their own lives." -- Dr. James Dobson
