In this episode of The Mother-Son Podcast with Kim & Jake, we dive deep into the topic of bullying — from the perspective of the person being bullied and the person doing the bullying. Using research and advice from StopBullying.gov and StompOutBullying.org, we share:

The official definition of bullying and the key signs that distinguish it from a one-time conflict.
Personal stories about being bullied and overcoming it.
Why kids bully — from insecurity to peer pressure — and how to address it.
The roles of bystanders, witnesses, and “outsiders” in bullying situations.
How to recognize the warning signs of cyberbullying and what parents can do.
Real-world comebacks and humor-based responses that can de-escalate conflict.
Strategies for schools, teachers, and sports teams to create safer environments.
Actionable steps for parents if their child is bullied — or if their child is the bully.

Whether you’re a parent, educator, or teen, this episode offers practical advice, empathy-building perspectives, and real strategies to prevent and respond to bullying — in person and online.
