About this episode
Despite years of strategies and awareness campaigns, Australian schools are still grappling with how to effectively handle bullying, leaving many parents feeling helpless and frustrated.
When official channels seem to fail, some parents are taking dramatic steps to protect their children - but at what cost, and is there a better way forward?
Today we speak to families about their breaking points when it comes to protecting their kids from bullying, and ask what needs to change to finally address this ongoing crisis in our schools.
