Dealing with bullying of your child can be very difficult and upsetting, but there are some steps you can take:

1. Listen and provide support. Let your child know you are there for them and that the bullying is not their fault. Encourage them to talk about the incidents so you can understand what is happening.
2. Document everything. Keep a record of all bullying incidents – what happened, who was involved, dates, times, etc. Save any evidence like messages or photos.
3. Report it to the school. Make the principal, teachers, counselors and school staff aware of the situation immediately. Most schools have anti-bullying protocols to address it.
4. Request an investigation. Ask the school to thoroughly look into the incidents and to keep you informed of their progress in stopping it.
5. Explore options within the school system. This may include arranging classroom changes, schedule adjustments, or even a school transfer if needed to ensure your child’s safety.
6. Seek outside help if needed. If the school is not addressing it appropriately, you can look into filing reports with school administrators at the district level or even police, especially for physical bullying.
7. Build your child’s confidence. Provide emotional support, encourage activities that make them feel confident, teach techniques to respond to bullies.
8. Consider counseling. A therapist can help your child develop coping strategies and work through trauma from bullying.

The most important things are showing your child you are on their side, advocating firmly but appropriately with the school, and taking measures to ensure their well-being. Consistent follow-up is key.
