Bullying among children and young people is widespread and the psychological consequences can be serious. Parents are often at a loss and helpless: "Can we protect our children from bullying - at school, in clubs, on the internet? How can we help our children if they are affected? How can we empower them? How can bullying be stopped? Where can we get support?"

The Bavarian Youth Welfare Office's next web coaching session at familienland.bayern.de will address these and other questions.

on Tuesday, April 29, 2025, at 8:30 p.m.
