Gossip Prevention
Helping you help the "Gossiper" to stop and helping the "Gossiped about" to not take it personally.
Paul shares effective strategies for educators, counselors and anyone with children on how to help youngsters stop this harmful habit. You'll discover that gossip is often misdirected anger, a way of avoiding intimacy, or lack of awareness. You'll see that gossip often stems from built up and negative releases of anger, of individuals feeling like they don't matter or that they have to tear another person down.Participants said:
