In a world full of caring adults, how is it that we keep missing the cries of hurting kids?

"Today, when the bell rings, kids might leave their school campus, but they can never escape the other world, a world where mockers and intimidators thrive. Ironically, they carry a gateway to that world right in their pockets, because they see that world as an avenue of escape. . .but in reality, it's putting them in bondage." —Jonathan McKee
With chapters including:

Digital Hurt

The Escape Key

Why Didn't You Say Anything?

Meet the Principal

Real-World Solutions

and More!


An expert on youth and youth culture, McKee shares his own heart-rending story and offers a sobering glimpse into the rapidly changing world of bullies, bystanders, and the bullied while providing helpful ways to connect with these kids, open doors of dialogue, and give them the encouragement they need and the validation they're searching for. . .too often in all the wrong places.


The Bullying Breakthrough promises real-world help for dealing with today's bullying culture.

      Longtime youth ministry leader McKee (If I Had a Parenting Do Over) has written on a number of subjects, but the research for this book hit close to home. Like many, the author encountered intense bullying as a child. Here, he interviews individuals from three groups: bullies, the bullied, and the often-ignored bystanders (the majority of a school campus) to gain their perspectives. Several chapters address cyberbullying, citing the dangers it causes by allowing perpetrators to hide behind a screen. He also touches on the social isolation victims experience, having no safe refuge from the bullying. Providing growth suggestions for all parties and noting that bystanders can be bolder and stand up for those who are preyed upon, he further points to warning signs for spotting trouble before it occurs, ideas for setting up meetings with school principals, and concludes each chapter with discussion questions. VERDICT McKee casts a broad net of solutions while presenting well-balanced viewpoints, making this a valuable read for those dealing with this pressing problem.
