Abstract
Bullying in schools has garnered significant attention recently, but little has been said about the bullying of homosexuals and transexual students in Canadian high schools. This book fills that gap by exploring the experiences of youth who identify or are identified as "queer." Based on interviews with recent high school graduates in British Columbia, these researchers provide stories of physical, verbal, and emotional harassment in this group and offer insights into the negative outcomes that result from the experience of being bullied. On the other hand, however, these young people were not helpless victims: many learned to rely on resistance, inner strength, and true friends. In the last chapter, the authors make recommendations for handling homophobic and transphobic bullying in high schools and supporting students who experience this form of harassment.

Abstract
Votre enfant semble-t-il souvent malheureux ou inquiet? Éprouve-t-il des difficultés à dormir ou à se concentrer? Souffre-t-il d'une phobie ou encore d'une angoisse à l'idée d'attirer l'attention? Si vous reconnaissez l'un ou l'autre de ces symptômes chez lui, il souffre peut-être d'une dépres­sion ou de troubles anxieux. Conçu comme un guide d'accom­pagne­ment pour les parents, ce livre se fonde sur les méthodes éprouvées de la thérapie cognitivo-comportementale. En plus de traduire le jargon psycho­logique en termes clairs, la psychologue Sam Cartwright-Hatton prodigue de judicieux conseils pour vous aider à identifier le traitement approprié pour votre enfant. Vous découvrirez des stratégies pour rehausser sa confiance en soi, des suggestions de change­ments à apporter à l'environnement familial ou scolaire, ainsi que des techniques vous permettant de gérer adéquatement ses craintes et ses inquié­tudes.
