Parent Anti Bullying Toolkit

Help your child feel heard, supported and more confident speaking up.Parent Anti Bullying Toolkit by Melony Axe is a practical resource for parents and carers of children aged 5 to 18. It offers clear guidance, conversation starters and planning sheets to help families recognise bullying, listen to their child and work with schools towards appropriate action.Like all of Melony’s books, this toolkit is rooted in true experiences: situations she has personally lived through and others she has witnessed in the community during 30 years of work as a mental health clinician, safeguarding and community advocate. Her writing brings together lived experience and professional understanding, with a clear purpose: helping people feel heard and supported when they speak up.Inside you will find tools for building confidence, managing emotions and checking in with your child, alongside scripts for difficult conversations, a step-by-step reporting guide, school meeting checklists, follow-up emails and a formal complaint template. Bullying logs, safety plans and school accountability trackers help parents record concerns and agree clear next steps. Reflection and self-care activities also support parents through challenging situations.Created to encourage calm conversations and informed action, this toolkit helps families recognise concerns, speak up and support children. It complements school safeguarding procedures and professional support.Every child’s voice matters.
