I'm not talking about "Research reports" but when they tell me "so-and-so was mean to me" or "so-and-so hurt me" or "So-and-so did something wrong in school." How about if you are doing carpool and one of the kids is saying "shut-up" and "Stupid?" I mean I know my kids aren't going to always be "angels" either, but I try to instill in my children good middos. I don't want them to be "tattletales" but I want to make sure that they are sticking up for themselves not be bullies or bullied.

My kids are little, but I try to empower them. So when my child comes home and says, "so and so said _____ to me," I practice with her what would be an appropriate response.

But I'm finding that now that I'm at the mercy of the school bus parental teaching only goes up to the point the kids go on the bus. Which is a chaval considering my boys attend a yeshiva which emphasizes middos.

Do not solve your child's problems for him/her. Instill in them the confidence that any issue that comes up- they can handle it. Validate what struggles they are facing and problem solve with them. This will make them feel heard, seen and confident.
