My Mom is a Big Fat Whale

DON'T BE FOOLED BY THE TITLE!!! Obviously, I do not believe this to be true about my mother. The title is actually an insinuation of the technique described in the book, clinically designated as "Reductio Absurdum."  I promise it will make sense once you get into the material.

Have you ever had an experience with bullies, or at least know someone who has? Of course you do... we all do. Fortunately, now there's a way to make it stop!

A tremendous number of people are plagued by bullies every day, and unfortunately most of these victims are young people whose age makes them vulnerable to lasting damage. Bullying has been persistent throughout history, but seems to be even more prevalent than ever in today's society. Furthermore, the evolution of bullies means that the old ways of dealing with them don't work as well as they used to. 

Due to the staggeringly high rates of occurrence, it's time to take a new approach. This workbook is intended to equip children, adolescents, teenagers, and even young adults with a unique way to deal with verbal and cyberbullying. 

Using the S-T-A strategy (detailed in the workbook), readers will learn how simple it is to take the power back from bullies. Exercises to practice the techniques follow each explanation and will equip readers with the tools they need. If others are picking on you or making fun of you to the point that it is causing emotional pain, this is the perfect intervention! Intended for use by or with anyone who struggles with the hurt feelings caused by the things others say, whether in person or on social media, it will benefit those who have ever experienced any of the following:

• Being bullied
• Being picked on
• Being made fun of
• Being the target of jokes
• Being laughed at
  

This guide is also a great tool for adults that want to assist children or adolescents who are victims of verbal or online bullying. It can be an excellent way for parents to teach their kids how to deal with bullies effectively. Therapists and Counselors could also implement the strategies used in this workbook to aid their ongoing work with young clients. By the end of the workbook, it will be clear to readers that using the S-T-A technique is the ultimate way to TAKE THE POWER BACK FROM BULLIES.
