Bullying
How does a bully become a bully?
Perhaps a child is angry and may have felt powerless in the past.
Becoming "tough" is a survival technique.
It could be peer pressure. It is
important for most of us to feel we belong. Friends or peers could be
a "bad" influence, talking children into doing things they
may, or may not, understand to be wrong.
Kids need boundaries. Caretakers may
have lacked in supervision. They may have been too busy to teach a
child how wrong it is to hurt others.
Children may never have been taught
tolerance, or been spoilt, making them think they can do anything they
want, including bullying!
What to do about bullies:
ï Inform teachers and parents. If
bullying is physical or violent, tell them not to give your name. That
could make bullies more angry and they'll come after you harder.
ï Travel to school or social events in groups. Don't walk alone.
ï Bullies won't pick on those they can't win against. Body
language and self-esteem plays a big part. A self confident person who
speaks up is less likely to be picked on. Learning things like Kung Fu
will help them achieve this.

The Milton Method - the right
solution
For generations, Australian mums have
relied on Milton for complete hygienic protection for many baby items.
Why? Because it's been clinically
tested and proven over many years to be an effective, trusted and
simple way to beat nasty germs. And of course, with the peace of mind
that Milton gives you, you'll have even more time to enjoy all those
special moments with your healthy and happy baby.
What is the Milton Method?
It simply means soaking
pre-cleaned items in a made-up solution proven to kill all kinds of
germs, such as Meningococci, Salmonella and Candida Albicans (thrush).
After soaking, your baby's items are hygienically stored ready for
use, on demand, at any time over the next 24 hours. How quick and easy
is that!
Why is the Milton Method superior?
The Milton Method is superior to
both boiling and microwave steaming. Because you only use cold water,
it's safer for you and little hands around the home, plus your items
will last longer.
Another great advantage of the Milton
Method is that the made-up solution remains active for 24 hours, so
you can simply pop cleaned items into the same solution at any time,
leaving them to soak before use. Items are then hygienically stored
until needed, for up to 24 hours. Always read the label and use as
directed.
