Imagine this student: They have no friends among their peers and no friends among adults. Youth and adults alike avoid them. They often appear to be a bully, but always seem to end up the victim, losing no matter what they try. Even adults have a difficult time empathizing with this child. This child is often more disengaged from school than their peers, achieves less academically, and has higher rates of smoking, alcohol use, depression and is at a higher risk for suicide. These students are Provocative Victims (aka the bully-victim or aggressive victim) and up to as many as 6 percent of students report that they both bully others and are bullied “sometimes” or “more often.” This course is designed to help teachers, parents, and care givers with the necessary understand this child and take the steps necessary to help this child become more aware of his behavior and how it affects others. This is a great course to help meet the NJ requirement for anti bullying specialists and other personnel. N.J.S.A. 18A:37-17b and c., N.J.A.C. 6A:16-7.7
