Preventing Hazing is the first and only book on hazing to include methods and techniques to help parents, teachers, and coaches prevent hazing in their communities. Written with clarity and passion, this much-needed book uncovers the deep roots of hazing, how and why it permeates schools, colleges, and communities year after year, and what parents, teachers, and coaches can do to prevent it in the future. Readers will learn how to recognize the warning signs, what do if a child/student has been involved in a hazing (either as a victim, bystander, or perpetrator), how to deal with the moral, legal, and emotional aspects of hazing, and, ultimately, how to heal and move forward both on as an individual and as a community. True stories from across the United States are interspersed throughout the book to underline the severity and prevalence of the problem. Preventing Hazing is the first and only book on hazing to include methods and techniques to help parents, teachers, and coaches prevent hazing in their communities.
