Heather Dwyer Sadlier, Ed.D., associate professor in the Department of Education, wrote a column about bullying for the Journal Tribune鈥檚 September 25 issue of its monthly Health & Wellness publication.

In 鈥淪trategies for Addressing Bullying: Advice from Educators,鈥� Sadlier shared responses from area educators to three key questions: What advice can parents/families give to children about bullying? What actions do you wish parents/families would take if they have a child who is bullying or being bullied? What other information or advice about the issue would you like to communicate?

Sadlier addressed both 鈥渞egular鈥� bullying as well as cyberbullying.

鈥淭he research is clear,鈥� explained Sadlier in the column, 鈥淭o ignore bullying is to condone the behavior. With no intervention from a bystander, the bully feels empowered and, research shows, his/her behavior toward the targeted individual will inevitably escalate from words to physical action.鈥�
